There will be lots of prizes on offer which you won't want to miss so join us alongside some of the world’s greatest pro riders in the world and help transform lives!

How your money can help

Temwa support the communities of Nkhata Bay North, Malawi, a very remote area, home to 55,000 people. Living in villages scattered along the lakeshore and uplands, most of the population can only be reached by foot or by boat, and consequently are neglected by limited government services or NGO support. The majority find it difficult to access education, healthcare, jobs and markets. Temwa's aim is to provide an infrastructure to support families in this region facing financial and humanitarian hardship and tackle the root causes of poverty to transform their own futures. We accomplish this by implementing programmes in health, education, agriculture and forestry.

This is your chance to win some of the fantastic prizes lined up for 2021, here are just a few....

Top Prizes Include:

A day riding with Laurie Greenland at Bike Park Wales
A luxury 2 night cabin stay for two near Bristol with a bespoke coaching session with Pedal Progression at Ashton Court Estate, Bristol

Signed Jerseys from some of the World's Greatest Pro- Mountain Bikers!
