       STRUGGLE YORKSHIRE                       DALES - SPORTIVE

        Major cycling Event in the                         Yorkshire Dales


AND THEY'VE DONE IT

RAISING OVER £1500  SO FAR

JUST BRILLIANT!!!!!
On Sunday 23rd May,  Kieren, Phil, Chris and Andy rode the 108 mile course, taking in 9,430ft over seven climbs - it is one of the UK's hardest sportive, set in the beautiful but gruelling Yorkshire Dales.!


They have taken on this amazing challenge to raise money for our new School's  PV Solar system in Lungi, Sierra Leone, for without solar power there is no light or computer access. Lungi Charity started building a Secondary School in Lungi Sierra Leone in January 2020 with a view to creating a school of excellence, to give the children the opportunity to achieve, to dream of a better life through education. In the area there are schools, but the standard is low, the classes overcrowded, and for most there is little chance of attaining the entry level  required for University.  We hope the new school will help remedy the situation. Construction began with the purchase of a jungle covered plot last January and the villagers have played a big part in the build to date - the mood behind the build is extraordinarily positive. The roof is going on shortly and we hope to have all complete by Christmas!


Many thanks to our sponsors  for your supporting us, and most especially to Kieren,  Phil,  Chris and Andy for taking on this epic challenge.

Awesome!

APRIL/MAY 2020 - COVID-19 FOOD APPEAL

On April 24th we set up a Fundraising programme through Just Giving to raise funds to feed  children and families in our area. Theirs is a hand to mouth existence, and with lockdown in place and no work, the children are very very hungry. We believe the best way we can help in Lungi at this time is to provide food - keep them as strong as possible.We are distributing 50kg bags of rice to families and children 
in our Lungi area.
To date  we have distributed rice to approximately 1400 people over May, June and July which equates to some 7.3 tonnes of rice.

Many many thanks to all our sponsors for donating to this cause!
and
a very big thank you to Katherine, The Grimley Tribe, and Andrew, for their amazing fundraising efforts.
 You are fabulous!
