    Story

    I've been involved in commercial projects in Tanzania for a few years.

    There's much that can simply be done by individuals to help the rural communities prosper.

    Education is at the heart of this and I am delighted that my daughter, Bella, intends to travel out to Tanzania to help in a local community and school as part of a World Challenge initiative.

    Tree planting, construction projects and well-digging are all essential work in addition to helping in lessons and your money will go straight to pay for a thoughtful and resourceful individual who just needs the funding to take part.

    This is a small part of the overall cost of her journey to help improve lives.

    I am doing the Yorkshire Dales 3 Peaks hiking challenge (12 hours for the 3 tallest peaks) on May 13th to raise funds for the trip. Please give generously to help me meet my target.

    Thank you for helping improve a Tanzanian community and thanks again for helping a young girl gain an exceptional life-changing experience.

    13/4/17 Already we are 60% of the way there and were still only 24 hours in! To check how our first joint training hike for the 3 Peaks went, go here: http://www.splash-maps.com/3-peaks-splashmaps-charity-walk/. Thanks to everyone who's donated so far! You are amazing!

      Dear All Thank you all very much for your support which egged me and the team on. In the end 4 out of 5 made it round in under 12 hours, myself included. Check out the film here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLel9ZqmCJ8 to see just what we were battling against! You've been really generous and thanks to people like you Bella will head to Tanzania, integrate with the locals and make a meaningful contribution to the community. Thank you all David

      You Lovely Lovely People! We're now at 120% of my original target! For fun I've put all the training clips and news on this web page. Let me know what you think! (check the video below for that training work we did in the Chilterns!). Loved it so much I made a map of it! http://www.splash-maps.com/3-peaks-splashmaps-charity-walk/
