Reducing Landfill and Changing Lives

I’m a trustee of a charity, The Green Standards Trust - turning waste into wonder and wildlife. We refurbish and reuse office furniture and IT equipment destined for landfill in the UK and US and turn it into schools, education and health centres around the world. We work with a range of charities and individuals and have helped build over 150 schools bringing new opportunities to more than 35,000 children in the UK and the rest of the world.

This September I am taking part in our Charity Bike Challenge 2009 - London to Geneva over 10 days.  You can sign up to take part or if you’d like to help me while sitting back in your armchair, safe in the knowledge that I am in huge amounts of pain, you can show your support through donation.  I’ll be keeping you up to date with the challenge with regular posts to this site.
