Hello there everyone!

I've been lucky enough to get a place volunteering with Raleigh International to work on sanitation and sustainable living projects in Southern India. I'm really excited to be going and part of the deal is fund-raising for the charity and raising awareness about the work they do.

I have to prepare for the project by getting fit so I've persuaded my mum to join me in attempting the challenge of walking the Coast to Coast, 190 miles across England from St Bees to Robin Hood's Bay. It will take 2 weeks and will be one of the hardest things we've done and I'd be really grateful for any donations which go directly to the charity!

Many thanks for all your support.

Ashleigh :)
