SPONSOR CHARLIE >>
Seven-year-old Charlie Simpson has cycled five miles round Fulham's South Park to raise funds for UNICEF's Haiti Earthquake Children's Appeal. He was aiming to raise £500 through his sponsored bike ride but has already raised over £200,000, with more coming in all the time.
You can still sponsor Charlie by visiting his online sponsorship page. Charlie says: "There was a big earthquake and loads of people lost their lives. I want to make some money to buy food, water and tents for everyone in Haiti. Please can you sponsor me and all your money will go to UNICEF. Thank you very, very much!"
