A WOMAN from Bexley plans to cycle 341km across India for the Whizz-kids charity, but she needs your help to do it.

Roja Veerappachetty hopes to raise £2,500 to make the trip of a lifetime and help buy mobility aids for children with disabilities.

"The idea of a cycle appealed to me, especially going to India and raising this amount of money to help children walk," she said.

Her daughter Sarrah came up with the idea of holding a party. Courts Squash Club in Welling kindly came up with the venue free of charge and Uncut Records of Bexleyheath Broadway has agreed to sell tickets for the event this Friday - so time is running out!

The party is for Over 18s and will have a Hallowe'en theme. It starts at 8pm and tickets are £5.
