It has been a while since my last fundraiser (2023), so time to set off again on another adventure. This year I am riding to support ACF also known as Action on Hunger in the UK. 
After working in the aid sector for nearly 26 years, I have travelled widely to many countries in the global south and have seen at first hand the impact of disasters and war on local communities.
People are facing hunger in many countries including Sudan where civil war has been ongoing for more than 2 years. Institutional funding has been reduced by many nations so its more important that we step up and do what we can to alleviate suffering. It would be amazing if you can support me by donating direct to ACF using one of the buttons to the right.
If you are donating in the UK, you will donate via JustGiving. Remember if you are a UK tax payer, a further 20% will be added to your donation by HMRC.
For those based in Europe, use the EU link. Here you will be taken direct to the ACF website where you can donate. For this based in France, donations can be declared for tax purposes.
Important Note: As with all my rides, all donations go direct to the charity I support. All logistical expenses including the ferry, hotels, train back from Paris, and BEER ! comes out of my own pocket.
If you click on the Route and Tracking button, you will be able to see my full route and live tracking of my progress. Live tracking has been donated by TrakSat – Thankyou Pierre!
For this ride, I am using my specialized Tarmac as shown in the picture. As you can see, I travel light! Hopefully I will have some good weather for the road trip. Leg 1 will take me from London to Portsmouth and then after the bank holiday weekend, I will make my way towards Paris calling in at IEC Telecom HQ in Cergy towards the end. The IEC Telecom will be starting a series of challenges at the same tome also to raise money for ACF
Training as began and I hope to be in good shape for the challenge. I will be posting regular updates as the challenge comes closer and then each day as I make my way to Paris.
