Story

 

Hello,

My name is Oliver Boxer and I’m 4½ years old.

I think it’s really sad that some people in Africa don’t have a real toilet like us and have to drink horrible dirty water and have no food, so I want to send them some money to help them.

I’ve learned to ride my bike without stabilisers now and I love it!  I want to do a BIG challenge to raise £100, which is a lot of money and will help the people a lot.

On Sunday 7th August I’m going to ride my bike all the way round Draycote Water reservoir, which is 5 miles, and I'm very excited!

Please can you sponsor me if you have some money, or maybe use the money in your piggy bank?

Thank you for helping!

Oliver.
