Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As an obsessive cyclist, I would often feel some trepidation about asking for sponsorship for a challenge such as this, but Newborn Vietnam's fundraising aims have convinced me overwhelmingly that this is a ride worth supporting. Nearly 1400km over 10 days, covering mountain passes in 40 degree heat - it won't be an easy ride. 
The group of riders who will make the journey across Vietnam will be raising money to directly fund the training of neonatal nurses in Vietnam. Meeting the people who's lives they are changing at the end of our ride. Corporate sponsors cover the costs of the trip and every pound you donate will go directly to fund the training of nurses and purchasing of equipment for this critical area. 

Thanks for anything you can offer, and please dig deep!
