Story

Dear Family and Friends,

Myself and around 150 cyclists from the UK, Australia, Kenya, United States, Canada, Dubai and India will be undertaking a gruelling 350km cycling challenge from Agra to Jaipur (Rajasthan, India), to raise funds for the following charities:

Veerayatan UK: We will be supporting a project to develop educational facilities in rural locations across Gujurat and Bihar, India. These facilities will provide much needed education and vocational skills to both children and adults in some of India's most underprivileged communities.

Rays of Sunshine Children’s Charity: provides support to children (and their families) who are living with serious or life-threatening illnesses in the United Kingdom.

Naomi House Children’s Hospice: A purpose-built children’s hospice in Hampshire that provides a homely environment for children and young people with life-limiting conditions that mean that they will not live to become adults. 

For more information an the challenge and the charities please click here.

Many of you sponsored me when I did a similar challenge from London to Amsterdam but I would be extremely grateful if you could give as much as you can for this worthwhile cause and help me achieve my fundraising target above!

Don't worry! You won't be donating your hard earned money so that I can have a knee's up in India! All the flights and accommodation have been paid for by the participants so that all the money raised will go directly to Veerayatan.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. If you’re a UK taxpayer (Congratulations as you now own a bit of RBS, HBOS and Lloyds TSB!!) Justgiving makes sure an extra 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation; so please check the Gift Aid box.

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read this and since you've got this far please sponsor me below!!!
