Colt Bike Ride 2024 · 6 September 2024 to 9 September 2024 ·

We're a London based education charity for children and young people aged 7 to 18 years old. We pioneer innovative ways for children to learn and develop new skills as well as gain connections and practical experience to help them on their journey into employment. We focus on teaching skills that matter in the real world and those sought after by employers. We currently teach coding and STEM remotely and in-person classes via libraries in Southwark. We target girls, those from disadvantaged backgrounds and those with special educational needs and/or disabilities. We want to move the needle on social issues that we care about, such as better gender equality in Tech and STEM and social mobility. By supporting Ignite Hubs, we can equip more children and young people with the skills, knowledge and mindset to have brighter futures and create a more inclusive and equitable world.

Story

Somewhat stupidly but well intentioned, I am taking part in a 4 day, 450km cycle event as part of Colt’s Charity Bike Ride in September. Whilst prior cycling skill and fitness would have seemed like a good prerequisite, I have ignored these and am jumping head first into this challenge to support Ignite Hubs and 21 other vital charities that empower underprivileged groups through digital skills education.

The ask is simple, please help by donating to this cause (anything from large unmarked bills to the change you find in the sofa is welcome) and in payment for your generous donation, you can sleep soundly knowing that you have helped a number of children toward a brighter future and also that I will be going through immense pain and suffering trying to get this non-cycling rig up the mountains.

Massive thanks.

Big love
