I will be cycling 100 miles with VSO in August 2019 to improve Healthcare for those who most need it!

VSO is very close to my heart as in 2017 I worked
with a similar charity, ICS Tanzania, on a rural hygiene project.

VSO focuses largely on improving health in deprived areas- last year supplying 900,000 people with access to better healthcare. While I am lucky I have access to a stable, reliable healthcare system that have recently supported me a lot, there are many people, just like me, who have insufficient support. In fact, people in 24 developing countries across Africa,Asia and the Pacific.

VSO amazing projects include: Maternal and newborn health ( Ethiopia); Young girls sexual health services (Ethiopia); 3 tier HIV/AIDS response(South Africa).

As most of you know, while a keen runner, the last time I rode a bike was(plunging)straight into Leeds Canal so any sponsor is much appreciated towards my target of £500.00.
