I'm sure you're all aware of the earthquake that struck asia last week.... My prayers are for those who have suffered and are suffereing greatly during this time of great struggle....
Nearly 50,000 people have been kille and over 4 million have been left homeless in what was already one of the harshest environments known to man......
What has this got to do with my friend (Sajid Haleem) being insane.....
Well he's planning a sponsored bike ride to raise funds to help those effected... he will be riding 23 miles from Windsor to Central London... while this may not seem much to all you seasoned bike riders out there... Sajid will actually be doing this while fasting (as it is the holy month of Ramadhan and muslims do not eat or drink during daylight hours)...
This is what I think makes Saj a very brave and courageous guy... (or as I prefer to think insane!!!!!)...
He has set up a website (via just giving) where you can make donations - these will be passed directly to the Disasters Emergency Committee, and will also allow claiming gift aid.
The website is http://www.justgiving.com/sajidhaleem
Please could you all show you're support by making a donation and/or leaving a message of support for him here.
Thanks
