Peter Whitehead is raising money for Transaid
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I'm thrilled to be taking part in Transaid’s Cycle Zambia challenge, cycling a 490 kilometre ride from Lusaka to Victoria Falls. Your generous contribution will support Transaid’s vital work in Africa.
Your support means so much to me as I train for my biggest challenge yet after completing Transaid's Cycle Tanzania in 2015.
About Transaid
Transaid is an international development organisation that transforms lives through safe, available, and sustainable transport; empowering people to build the skills they need to transform their own lives.
- Transaid's Access to Healthcare programme provides means of transport for health workers to visit pregnant and newly delivered women in rural communities as well as supporting ETS (Emergency Transport Scheme) drivers and equipment with bicycle powered stretchers which can transport them to a clinic in an emergency.
- Transaid's Road Safety programme is helping to provide training for passenger and goods vehicle drivers across Africa, helping to reduce road deaths (the third biggest killer in Africa after HIV/AIDS and Malaria).
About The Challenge
After visiting one of Transaid's programmes in the capital Lusaka, we will be undertaking a 490 kilometre ride over 5 days, taking on dirt tracks, across undulating terrain, passing through tiny villages and open bush, finishing at Victoria Falls.
