These are tough times for so many people in so many places: Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders (MSF) is the world's leading medical humanitarian aid organisation.

"We provide emergency assistance to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics and natural or man-made disasters, without discrimination and irrespective of race, religion, gender or political affiliation.

We work in over 70 countries and go to the places where others cannot or choose not to go."

If you can spare a little to help MSF do their amazing work while I pedal north that would be great!

(I'm not sprinting this LEJOG - but looking forward to taking in lots of the UK scenery as I head northwards this Spring. A bit like that line about 'How do you eat an elephant?' 'Gradually, one bite at a time...')
