1546Kms in 9 days by bike: Land's End-John O'Groats
by Matthew Cobham for Calcutta de la rue à l'école
Hi - A friend and I are riding by bike from Land's End (the most south west point in UK) to John O'Groats (most north easterly point in Scotland) between the 30th of May and the 7th of June 2015. 1546 Kms in 9 days, with 15,000 metres of hill climbs... it will be quite a challenge!
I would like to use this personal challenge as an opportunity to also raise money for a charity I really trust and believe in: 'Calcutta de la rue à l'école' (French part of the International charity Tomorrow's Foundation). This charity was created 25 years ago in Calcutta, India and is still managed locally by a French and Indian couple who are close friends.
The charity helps provide holistic education for children who have lost often literally everything to guide them until they can support themselves. See the web site for more information :

(really recommend watching the film 'Little Wings' on the welcome page of this site)

Calcutta de la rue à l'école
Depuis 1995, Calcutta de la rue à l'école aide les enfants défavorisés en leur donnant accès à l'éducation. Grâce à des programmes éducatifs adaptés, les enfants laissés pour compte de Calcutta prennent confiance en eux et peuvent envisager un avenir. Prendre en charge un enfant pour 1 an coûte 156 €. Avec cette somme, vous financez un uniforme, du soutien scolaire, des fournitures, 2 repas/jour, des professeurs compétents. Avec cette somme, vous redonnez le sourire aux enfants des rues.
