Hi all we have confirmed the charity we will be riding for! Peddles http://www.pebblesproject.co.za/ !! It is an organisation which support childern in the Cape winelands by providing after school support amongst other things to kids who really don't have the start in life that we were fortunate enough to receive! We will be supporting their art classes in particular! 
Their goals for the next short while!!
Establish 5 after-school clubs on the farms currently supported by Pebbles Project.
The clubs will cater for all children living on the farm aged 6-16.
To manage the after-school clubs for four days a week in the club buildings that we are currently renovating, with a range of activities during the week (e.g. sport, art, life skills and literacy classes), as well as homework supervision time.
The after-school clubs should impact approximately 150 children's lives.

Through the art classes we are hoping to:
Improve the childrens' level of concentration and self esteem
- Use art to create a better understanding of self and world
- Increase the children's knowledge of different art forms and cultural influences
- Develop fine motor skills
- Very importantly, make sure that the kids are having lots of fun!
So please any donations will go a long way!!
