Sponsored bike ride from London to Paris in aid of recycling charity

A member of the Computeractive team is limbering up to raise more than £1,000 for one of our favourite charities.

Natalie Forsdike will take part in a sponsored bike ride from London to Paris, covering more than 200 miles in just three days.

The money raised will be donated to Computer Aid International, which recycles unwanted computers for reuse in education, health and not-for-profit organisations. Computer Aid has provided more than 150,000 PCs to where they are most needed in more than 100 countries across Africa and South America.

To find out more or lend your support, visit Natalie's sponsorship page at the JustGiving site.
