Hello everyone,

I am cycling towards South Asia from Leicester, England, and would like to take the opportunity to raise money for Sickle Cell Society. The rough route I have taken has been: England ➝ Lowlands ➝ Germany ➝ Poland ➝ Slovakia ➝ Hungary ➝ Ukraine ➝ Romania ➝ Bulgaria ➝ Turkey ➝ Georgia ➝ Armenia. The next country is Iran.

Sickle cell is a disorder of the blood that inhibits its ability to transport oxygen. You can read about it, and the work carried out by Sickle Cell society here: https://www.sicklecellsociety.org/about-sickle-cell/

N.B. ALL donations go DIRECTLY to the charity and not to the bike ride itself.

If you would like to donate, and also pay tax in the United Kingdom, then please make use of GiftAid.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
