Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. 

We are covering 3 countries in 3 days on 4 wheels to help raise money for Smile Train. Smile Train provides free cleft surgery and comprehensive cleft care to children in developing countries. Through training local doctors and empowering partner hospitals around the world, they are able to treat cleft lip and palates, drastically improving children’s lives, including their ability to eat, breathe, and speak over time.

So starting on Good Friday, we will slip into some lycra and pop our cheeks onto our saddles for a swift 252 mile journey from Maida Vale in London to Brussels in Belgium. Every pound you donate will bring us closer to providing a child with the chance to have life changing surgery to correct a cleft lip and palate. £150 is all it takes to cover the cost of one surgery.
