Cycling Africa: Cape to Cape

Cycling from the most southern tip of Africa (Cape Agulhas, South Africa) to the most northern (Cape Bon, Tunisia). In association with Linking Tourism & Conservation , I will raise awareness of the remarkable work that is done across the continent to support conservation in protected natural areas with the help of tourism initiatives.​



I will be receiving donations from anyone who would like to sponsor my bicycle ride to support The Dyer Conservation Trust  in South Africa. They are a dedicated charity with a mission to protect marine life and tackle the fight against plastic and the decline of wildlife. 



Founded in 2006 by Wilfred Chivell, the Dyer Island Conservation Trust delivers unique conservation and research programmes in a fragile marine and critically important marine eco-system. We strive to protect the largest surviving colonies of the endangered African Penguin whose numbers are at an all-time low; the globally important breeding and calving grounds of the Southern Right Whale; and the world's densest populations of the vulnerable Great White Shark.

MISSION
Discover and understand this globally important marine eco-system through world-class scientific research.
Protect the long-term future of the species that live here by translating this knowledge into evidence-based conservation initiatives.
Educate our partners – local communities, legislators and visitors – by informing and actively involving them in achieving our goals for the benefit of all.
