On January 12th 2010 a devastating 7.0 magnitude earthquake hit Haiti. A spokesperson for the United Nations has described the quake as the worst disaster ever. With an estimated 230 000 dead, 300 000 injured and 1.5 million people left homeless the people of Haiti desperately need our help. They have lost family, friends, homes and livelihoods. Hospitals, schools and government buildings were all destroyed.

On May 31st we will be hiking around Derwent Water, it is a distance of approximately 10 miles. Please sponsor us, give as generously as you can. I know many of you have already donated, but we need to give and keep giving. The earthquake in Haiti is already fading from the news, but it will take years to rebuild the shattered lives of the Haitian people.
