Jamelia, seven, and Anisha, six, decided to do a sponsored bike ride to help the flood victims in Pakistan. On Saturday (18 September 2010) they set off to ride 23 miles along the Kennet & Avon Canal towpath from the Caen Hill Flight in Devizes to Bath.
Jamelia said, "We would love to reach our target and raise a £1000 towards food, medicines and new shelters for the millions of people who have lost everything." Anisha added, "Our school is helping by holding a mufti day and that will add a lot to our target."
Before they had reached Bath the figure they had raised had shot past their target and had reached £1,470 and it is still rising.
If you would like to contribute to the disaster appeal you can make a donation through their page on the 'JustGiving' website.
