On Sunday, 14th September, members and staff of Selborne Chambers will be taking on the challenging quest to cycle from London to Brighton, 55 miles! Our team consists of David Warner, James Newman, Edward Bennion-Pedley, Darren Madle, Aron Hanks, Charlie Leppington and Hannah Pinkney. This year the charity ride is in support of Daughers Rising, a charity that empowers at-risk girls to end trafficking and exploitation in their communities and break the cycle of poverty.
Daughters Rising work with the most at-risk populations in northern Thailand – ethnic minority women and refugees in underserved communities. For this reason, they take a multifaceted approach to their work: education through their scholarship program for indigenous and refugee women; employment through their hospitality vocational training program; and outreach, through their safe house for at-risk girls and empowerment workshops.
