Story

DUE TO THE PROBLEMS IN PAKISTAN THIS EXPEDITION IS UNABLE TO PROCEED

We are all so sad to see this dream die, but despite your wonderful generosity, current circumstances mean it is impossible for us to complete our route. Our window of opportunity closes in November and we have therefore been forced to admit defeat....

Any money left in this account will still go to the FutureSense Foundation, however if you feel you would like your money back please email firstoverland2010@hotmail.com and I will do my very best to get it back to you.

I am discussing the potential for an alternative charity challenge with the FutureSense Foundation, but I can otherwise only reiterate how sorry we feel, not only for the loss of this amazing experience, but also for the people of Pakistan and for the people we had hoped to help along the way.....

With great sadness and thanks for your generosity,

Marie-Claire and the First Overland team
