Story

On 6th August a 20-strong team is taking up the challenge of pedalling over 50km each on gym bikes to cover the distance from Edinburgh to Paris - in 3 hours or less! We're raising vital funds for Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre who have been supporting survivors of sexual violence since 1978. Your contribution and support makes a very real difference to the centre.

Here's how one survivor describes her experience of ERCC:

"It’s the place I feel most safe, validated, listened to and in control of my healing. It feels difficult and hard- but in a supported and productive way. It’s impossible to find the words to explain how an hour at the centre can make such a difference. There’s a feeling of getting somewhere.”

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
