Pedal Power! Cycling 500km across Malawi

Aim

Help me raise funds for this incredible charity that is helping poor and vulnerable people in Malawi by giving them a hand up not a hand out

I'm heading to Malawi to take part in an incredible 500km cycle ride to raise funds for a charity that was set up 18 years ago by our good friends here in the UK. African Vision Malawi helps children & vulnerable people in Malawi, by working with communities to develop long-term and sustainable solutions to the welfare of orphans and vulnerable people in key areas of self-sufficiency, health, education and water and sanitation. 

The money you donate will support the charity's programmes including training marginalised people so that they can work, supporting women in maternity, and a special needs unit for people with disability. Access to healthcare and education empowers people to become self-sufficient and independent, by giving them a hand up, not a hand out. 

We will cycle up to 100km a day, on a variety of terrain, (mainly flat but some very hilly!), engaging with local people as we go and seeing the wonders of Malawi including its magnificent lake.  All of the cyclists taking part are paying their own costs to participate, so all of the monies raised go direct to the charity.

Anything you can contribute towards helping me achieve my target will be massively appreciated. Thanks in advance for supporting me, your contribution is truly life changing.

Thank you
