Fundraising for The Pickwell Foundation
£728
raised of £10,000 target
Taw Community Guided Coastal Walk, 2 May 2021
We are a Community Sponsorship group who initially started out as two groups from Marwood and Goodleigh. We have since expanded and are working together to re-settle a Syrian Family in Barnstaple in the early part of 2022.

Story

£10,000 is our ultimate goal by the end of 2021. With this money we can rescue a family from a refugee camp and help them to start a new life in North Devon. The fundraising will start with tree planting on Exmoor (6th February) followed by teams competing in the Croyde Triathlon (4th July). Also in the pipeline is a cycle ride from Bristol to Glasgow for the start of the COP 26 Climate change conference (1st Nov) setting off at the end of October. As well as this there are many other fundraising events being arranged over the coming months. Please support us in any way that you can on this journey to resettling a refugee family; see you along the way and at the finish line.
