Uganda is a country plagued by drought and we help provide a reliable source of water through tanks and wells.
Read moreEach year we take to the roads on our bikes, tackling some of the challenges that the North Somerset and Bristol area has to offer to raise money for projects in Uganda. Our inaugural ride in 2014 saw us completing the whole 88 miles of the Avon Cycleway and raised over £6,000 for the Namisindwa Orphanage. In recent years we have raised funds to install water collection systems using guttering and water tanks to provide a reliable source of water to drought susceptible communities.
We cycle in one large group, helping and encouraging each other as we ride and enjoy a day of working together to help others. You are most welcome to join us for our next ride and help us to make life a little better for some of those who live in Uganda.
Cycling for Uganda since 2014!
In our first year 35 cyclists tackled the Avon Cycleway, the 88 mile National Cycle Route 410, around Bristol.
Our second year saw us take on the iconic Cheddar Gorge, a scenic route through the Mendip Hills
A shorter ride than previous years, but with five of the biggest hills in North Somerset to conquer it was far from easy!
Returning to the format of our first adventure we completed all 88 miles of the Avon Cycleway again with 50 cyclists!
Tackling the Avon Cycleway in the clockwise direction, with an optional century ride for the faster riders!
You are welcome to join us for our next ride and help us to raise funds for Uganda through personal sponsorship. If you don't feel able to cycle, then there are still ways to support us. The easiest way is to make a donation through our Wonderful.org page. It's secure, allows you to Gift Aid your donation and they take no commission. You can like our FaceBook page, or tell your friends about us. We are also grateful for volunteers to help on the day to provide food, transport and support.
We are members of a church based in Clevedon, near Bristol in the UK and some of us have travelled to Uganda on missionary work. During our work we have seen the poor conditions that many communities there live in, and to help improve those conditions we started an annual cycle challenge to raise funds and hopefully make some of their lives that little bit more tolerable.
It is the people who are involved in Cycle For Uganda that make it the great ride that it is though. The cycle ride has been extremely well supported by the cyclists, family and friends, with up to 50 cyclists taking part, and a growing number of cyclists come back year after year. There are also a large number of people who support the ride through their administrative support or help with providing food, accomodation and transport on the day. We also owe our success to the hundreds of generous people who have sponsored the cyclists.
Without them all we wouldn't be able to Cycle For Uganda.
