On Thursday 22 September a group of ten lawyers from my firm and ten of our clients will be flying to Borneo. Once there we will be biking 100km cross country in order to raise funds for our chosen charity: Singapore Children's Society. Although Singapore is a rich country, there are children who fall through the cracks in society and are greatly in need of financial support in order to put them on a level footing with the rest of us. As a firm we are firmly committed to helping the communities within which we work - and this is my part in giving something back this year. I am sorry to say that I am unlikely to be able to dazzle you with any broken records on my return ("training" has been on my to do list for months) but I can promise that I will try my hardest to complete the (very hilly) course in the punishing heat and humidity and that I will bring back photographic evidence. It's a great cause and all of the team really appreciate your generosity. My firm will match a portion of your donation - so your giving will have extra impact!

Singapore Children's Society protects and nurtures children and youth of all races and religions. In 2014, the Society reached out to 68,292 children, youth and families in need. Established in 1952, its services have evolved to meet the changing needs of children.Today, Children’s Society operates 10 service centres across Singapore, offering services in the four categories of: Vulnerable Children Services, Children and Youth Services, Family Services, and Research and Advocacy.
