Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
I am joining 51 other cyclists and 8 support staff to cycle over 220 miles through the Loire to raise money for children in care. Half of children in care leave school with no GCSEs at all. Only 14% obtain 5 good GCSEs-compared with 65% of all children, and only 6% go on into higher education, compared with half of all young people. And over a third of children who have left care are not in education, employment or training by thier 19th birthday and one in five are homeless.
We are funding the trip ourselves so all sponsorship will go directly to raising literacy standards through the work of Who Cares? Trust. www.thewhocarestrust.org.uk
I have been overwhelmed by your generousity. I have nearly reached my minimum sponsorship target in less than 72 hours. Thank you so much. I have been inspired to increase my minimum target to £1,000.00
Every penny is valued. Thank you for your support.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Who Cares? Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please sponsor me now!
