a) Sheryl will be doing it with me (or is that me doing it with her?)
b) I won't be recovering from being knocked off my bike and have only 1 week's preparation
Anyway, I'll be fundraising for WSPA again, so if you feel inclined to donate, then great! A simple "fiver" (£5) will be appreciated, and any more will also be appreciated!
You can use the little button on the right here, or just go to (or click on) http://www.justgiving.com/Simon-Welfare .
We'll let you know how we go on the 26th of September, so watch this space!
As you may recall, I've fundraised for WSPA before with the proceeds going towards the Bioresource Research Centre (http://www.pbrc.edu.pk/ ) in Pakistan and the two bear sanctuaries (Kund and Balkasar) for those bears rescued from the "sport" of bear baiting. (see: http://www.pbrc.edu.pk/bearbaiting.htm for info on that).
Well, the recent floods in Pakistan have destroyed the Kund sanctuary beyond repair. This leaves only the unfinished sanctuary at Balkasar, which desparately needs completion - not only because it needs to house the 3 surviving bears (from 23) from the floods, but also for the remaining 70-something bears that the staff of the Bioresource Research Centre are trying to rescue from the gypsy bear baiting events.
For these reasons I'm raising funds again for WSPA and this cause...

Happier days for the survivors in the Kund Sanctuary
