I am cycling over 400km the week beginning 15 September 2024 from London to Ghent to Rotterdam in order to attend the iPRES2024 conference and fundraise for Safe Passage.

My route is:

Tuesday 17 September Deinze to Ghent (20km)

Tuesday 17-Thursday 19 September - attend the conference in Ghent

I’m the Director of Kazky - a United Kingdom based consultancy specialising in archives, libraries and heritage. Both myself and my fellow Director, Larysa Bolton, are third generation descendants of refugees. We are fundraising for Safe Passage who fight for a compassionate refugee system, where child refugees and their loved ones are safe and reunited.
