My Donations to date: £537
Fundraiser(s): Steven Moore, David Walker (raising for Pathways of Chesterfield)
Event: 2 Bikes. Long way.
Event Date: 31st August 2009
Charitie(s) Supported: Jane Goodall Institute,

On the 31st August 2009 I will be cycling from Switzerland to Uxbridge and finally on to Oxford. I will be accomponied by David Walker (riding for Pathways of Chesterfield).
I have chosen to ride for the Jane Goodall institute because since I can remember my Godmother had been sponsering a chimp for me and I decided that I should contribute to this great cause. The Jane Goodall institute is involved in comunities in African countries such as Congo, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, and more. They offer help to local communities by installing water sources, sanitation and offering skills such as farming and set up schools in which the children can learn. Another part of the Institutes involvement is with Apes. The rehabilitation and conservation of Apes that have been made homeless by deforestation or have been part of the illegal animal trades among other reasons. The Ape sancturies also provide employment for local people. To find out more visit the website.
The journey will be about 900km of cycling, which will be covered in 6 to 7 days. We shall be heading up to Basel (CH) then on through Belfore (France) up to Dieppe to take the ferry to Newhaven. Then it onto Uxbridge then home to Oxford.
Any donations are much appreciated. Thanks for reading and showing an interest!
