Jim rides the trail to raise money for Malawi
Last month, our Senior Operations Manager, Jim, took part in a thrilling mountain bike challenge in Wales. Not only did he come third in his event but raised the fantastic sum of £550 for Temwa - a charity that supports sustainable development projects in northern Malawi, one of the poorest countries in the world and close to Jim’s heart since his first visit there over 10 years ago
Jim had to successfully complete a number of tricky mtb trails that involved biking up to the top of each trail as well as riding hard downhill. World champion rider, Laurie Greenland, also took part and is looking to travel out to Malawi next year to visit the community projects that Temwa is supporting.
Jim’s 'awesome mountain biking skills' can be seen in this photo of him in action.
