Mark Allen

Sebastian Richards and myself, Mark Allen, have decided to cycle from our homes (Whitstable and South London Respectively) to Bestival in the Isle of Wight (via Brighton) - About 100 miles each. We thought that as we're doing this, we may as well try to raise some money for a worthy cause while we do it. Any money anyone will pledge will help us (give us more willpower) and help the charity, Tenteleni... "Tenteleni is an entirely volunteer-run charity that supports UK university students to travel to placements in Kenya, Malawi, South Africa, Swaziland and Zanzibar. Volunteers work alongside staff in schools, children?s homes and non-governmental organisations to offer support, enthusiasm and friendship. Both the local communities and the volunteers themselves benefit from engaging in the sharing of skills and ideas. Tenteleni aims to create sustainable relationships and to work in partnership in order to enhance the educational experiences of vulnerable children." For more informatio... more
