Story

Velo Love? So what's it all about?

We're starting a velolution, we're helping the world evolve.

On the 17th July I am leaving my junior school in the leafy suberbs of london to cycle 9000 miles to India, yes, that's on a push bike, where I will be working at a school in the tiny village of Chembakolli.

Fund Raising target for this page - £9000 - that's a fare lump but it's just £1 for every mile I cycle. £10 for every puncture, 10p for every blister I get on my bottom, 1p for every time I put myself in the pain box, 0.1p for every revolution of the pedal!!!

That's £1 for every child who has died in the last 5 hours through extreme poverty. 5hrs. £1. Surely it's got to be worth it. 

Actionaid support the school and local reserve in India as well as being dedicated to ending extreme poverty that kills 28 children a minute of every day.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: ActionAid 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.

You're here now so why not pop a few pounds in the pot!

By doing so you help me with one revolution of the pedal, you make a difference to the children around the world who are suffering - it can be your journey too. Keep yourself up to date at www.dannybent.com.

Thanks and big love,
