I just want to give a big shout out to Ed, Freddie and Sean – otherwise known as ‘Team Bear Bones’.

They are all PhD students at Teddy Hall (St Edmund Hall, University of Oxford), and are currently driving from Oxford, England to Ulan-Ude, Russia as participants of this years Mongol Rally – all to raise funds for the Bone Cancer Research Trust – in memory of Matt.

If you want to read more about their adventures please checkout their Blog or Facebook page.

Only a few days into the trip they have already seen some spectacular sights – beautiful scenery, amazing sunsets, and an encounter with a pair of bears!

Their goal was to raise £5000, which they have already met. However, if you are able to give anything to such a worthwhile cause you can donate here.

As Matt would say, “GO TEAM BEAR BONES!”
