Hitch 2007
During Easter over 785 students invaded Europe in the biggest sponsored hitch in history. Hitchers from all over the UK embarked on the 1,600 mile journey to Morocco or the 800 mile trip to Prague. So far the event has raised over £235,000 for LCD's education projects in Africa and the money is still rolling in! LCD would like to thank all of this year's hitchers for this awesome achievement.

"He tells us he is going about 20 minutes down the road. At 6am, just before dawn, we drive into Barcelona, the two of us in the back in sleepy amazement. Joaquin has driven for 15 hours through the night."

“We got a lift with a professional Spanish rugby team who took us all the way to Madrid on their tour coach. That night the rugby club paid for us to stay in their 3 star hotel in the centre of Madrid with them - free meals included! The next day we watched their match, which they won!!!”
