Story

Deepshikha school, in Ravi-opi, Nepal was ruined by the devastating earthquakes and has yet to be rebuilt. The children learn each day in poor quality tin shelters and desperately need new premises. Shiva charity have a project underway to rebuild but need further funds to complete the project this year. Just £5,000 will put a roof and PVC windows on both new buildings, so that they can begin being used. 

I have been to Deepshikha and have seen what an impact this new facility will make to the community. Please help Shiva to complete this project by sponsoring this mad 45yr old who although it will almost kill me i'm sure, will do anything to see the school up and running! :-D

For several years We have run a music festival to support Shiva in Nepal, this year that was simply not possible due to family and work commitments! But I still feel that I need to do all I can to help these kids.

So on the 10th September 2018,  I'm going to Cycle from my home in Weston super Mare to Paris - just over 400Km in an effort to raise the money, or part of the money needed to achieve the completion of this long overdue rebuild.

If you would like to sponsor as a business, I have available space on my cycling gear and the entire event will be widely blogged, vlogged and press released - please get in touch with me at : hobphin@gmail.com or call me on 07886363959

Thank you for your time and support
