Leo's 651km cycle trip over the Himalayas!

Leo Minns is raising money for Over The Wall Camp
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

404 mile cycle trip over the Himalayas! · 9 June 2016

As a result of long-term health conditions, more than 1 in 10 children in the UK can be denied a carefree childhood, and this number is growing. Our programmes empower children and families to explore new possibilities and rediscover the fun and magic of childhood.

Story

*** All money donated on this page goes directly to the charity and will not help fund my expenses for my trip in any way ***

First off, thank you for taking the time to check out my page and having a look at what my trip will entail and who it is for!

Over The Wall is a fantastic charity that runs free summer adventure camps for sick children each year. My little sister was diagnosed with leukaemia in 2008, and during her recovery, was able to attend three of these camps. The gift of a holiday to children in such horrible situations is priceless. With the money raised, it will go towards providing medical supplies for a serious illness (£15 p/m), food and accommodation for a child (£50), sending a child kayaking (£25), horseriding (£10). http://www.otw.org.uk

In order to raise my target, I shall be cycling 651km from Manali to Shimla in the Himalayas on some of the worst roads in the world. Altitude shall be my biggest hurdle, as can be seen on the route map below, the highest point I shall reach is 4500m/15,000ft above sea level.



Along the route, I shall be sleeping in local home-stays/tents, for a total cycling period of 12 days.

All of the money raised shall go directly to the charity to keep providing these wonderful camps to sick children each year, please give whatever you can :) 

Love
Leo x
