Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
What I am doing
Stretching 6000km in a dotted line across China, the Great Wall was begun in the 5th Century BC. As it snakes across the mountains it
conjures up a sense of history which is difficult to grasp until you
have had the opportunity to experience it. The 10 day trek is very varied, as I pass through woodland and terraced farmland, and follow the contours of the beautiful hills and mountains in remote areas north of Beijing. I will follow old sections of the Great Wall, as well as restored sections with smooth flagstones and lots of steps! This challenge is physically demanding and offers fabulous scenery and a fascinating insight into a rich culture and history.
Why I am doing it
I am supporting The Children's Trust in Tadworth, Surrey. Their vision is "that all children with brain injuries, multiple
disabilities and complex health needs have the opportunity to live the
best life possible". http://www.thechildrenstrust.org.uk/page.asp?section=25§ionTitle=About+us
The Children's Trust is supportive and welcoming to families during
times which can be bleak and frightening. Everyone has a different
experience, but everyone is given the highest-quality care and attention
imaginable.
Every year, the charity moves leaps and bounds forwards in the incredible work it can do, but it is only with YOUR help that it can continue to thrive.
My target is £5000+ and I can't possibly reach it without YOUR SUPPORT!
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. Alternatively, text LOTS52 £5 to 70070 (no fee!) if you wish to donate £5.

THANK YOU
Once again,thank you so, so much for visiting the page and for any amount of money you are able to give. I really
appreciate it, and I know the Children's Trust do too. But don’t delay
until the last-minute! £5000 is a hefty amount to raise, and I will
definitely need some motivation as I start getting fit...*sigh*
Please please please forward the link to this page to anyone at all who might want to support the cause and/or see me in lots of pain.
