Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page - for my participation in Scope's Great Wall of China Trek.

I am very excited to be a part of Scope's Great Wall of China Trek and I hope to raise as much money as possible for such a worth-while cause. Please please please help me out and make a difference by donating.

This will be the adventure of a lifetime for me, and it will be doubly rewarding as I will be raising money to help people with cerebral palsy - to get the care they need and the best out of life!

It will be a challenge, but I know I can do it with your help!

Why am I doing this? Why not! Who ever needed a reason to do something life changing? I'm unfit, lazy and I haven't walked any further than a mile in years... So now's the time to change, right?

This isn't just about trekking along one of the seven wonders of the world - this is about putting in a lot of effort to raise those all important funds. I have until July 2010 to raise at least £2,900 - but ofcourse I want to exceed that amount. It's something I've never had to do before, so your help will be much appreciated.

The trek will cover 40km of the Great Wall of China over 6 days, and I will be attempting to walk some of the steepest parts of the wall. 

PLEASE donate generously - this is for all those out there who aren't being given the same opportunities as everyone else because they were born with cerebal palsy. Make a difference for them.

 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
