Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In the last few years, the number of our fellow beings who are enslaved by others has risen by a shocking 25% to 49.6 Million people. That's 1 in every 150 people.

One quarter of these souls are children and over 2/3 are women and girls.

I am riding some 1,400 kilometres from Walsingham to Lourdes, (in the French Pyrenees) to help Anti-Slavery International's work to end slavery. Every human deserves to live a life free from the worst forms of exploitation.

I am making this ride alone and I am truly awed by the prospect. I pray you will be with me in spirit, and I hope I can make it...

I hope for people's freedom and restoration.

It isn’t easy to stop exploitation and secure freedom for a person enduring modern slavery, but Anti-Slavery International do just that. Throughout their long history they’ve built the expertise, partnerships and knowledge needed to help prevent slavery in its many forms – including child slavery, forced labour and human trafficking.

Please consider donating to this worthy cause and become a modern abolitionist bringing people into freedom. You can truly set the downtrodden free.

You can follow me on the ride with short messages most days here.
