Mandy's Sahara 50K Trek
Fundraising for East Cheshire Hospice
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On the 12th November this year I will be flying out to Morocco to embark on a 50k trek in the Sahara desert and afterwards I will be getting hands on with a community project in Marrakech with 18 people fund raising for East Cheshire Hospice. This is such an amazing cause, East Cheshire Hospice need to raise more than 7500 pounds a day to maintain the care they provide. Rachel had end of life care in East Cheshire Hospice and although it was difficult as it was the very start of lockdown they did what they could to make Rachel’s final days comfortable with her close family. I am self funding so any money you very kindly donate goes directly to them.
The trek will be diverse and demanding, extremely hot during the day and very cold at night. We will be camping on the sand dunes in tents or without, beneath the star filled skies. It’s definitely going to be a challenge, 3 days trekking in the blistering heat with no nice showers to cool off in and no comfy bed to sleep in. Everyone knows I love a leisurely dog walk, I’m also known to love a few days in the sun but it’s normally sat under a palm tree, by the turquoise sea and with a nice chilled glass of Rosé. If I’m walking anywhere on the sand it’s normally to the beach bar!
