What's all this about?
We are a group of young people who are taking on a physical and mental challenge that will see us cycle from London to Paris. We are doing this in solidarity with the people of Gaza.
Our aim is to raise £100,000 for Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP). This money will go into projects in Gaza focusing on children's health.
The Situation In Gaza
Between December 27th 2008 and January 17th 2009, the population of Gaza suffered 22 days of relentless aerial and ground attacks. During this offensive:
- Over 1,400 palestinians were killed and over 5,550 are injured.
- Over 400 of those killed were children.
- Hospitals, UN schools and shelters were targeted.
- Over 400,000 people have been left without running water.
- Over 21,000 homes have been destroyed.
- Over 90,000 people have been left homeless.
