Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my sponsorship page.
What will I be doing?
Cycling a very long way. A group of us are getting together to cycle 92 miles round the Lake District. The challenge will be completed on 4 different types of bike: a Harmony Trandem cycle, a handcycle, a recumbent trike and a tandem. The team will swap on and off each bike and any time I’m not on one of these, I’ll be riding a bicycle...
What is the charity?
Here's a bit of info about the cause I'm supporting.... My sister and brother-in-law are heading off to Africa later this year to set-up an exciting new project. The Bethesda Project will be an outdoor activity and learning centre in Burundi, Central Africa, which challenges the exclusion of disabled people and aims to treat every person as equal. Burundian society views disabled people as worthless –the project aims to change the way the society views those with disabilities and be a part of the process of reconciliation by accepting all people as equal and teaching individuals how to work together. We want to help those who are seen as worthless to find their self-worth and build up their self-esteem through enabling them to do more than they ever thought was possible.

The Bethesda Project is being supported by The Kepplewray Project, which is an established charity basically doing the same thing here in England.
