Story

Each year, our GBG teams take on a challenge to raise funds for a good cause. This year the charity chosen by the UK team is the Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal, run by the Disasters Emergency Committee. While the initial coverage has died down, the scale of the disaster rumbles on, with 14 million people having fled their homes, almost half of whom have fled the country.

This Thursday I'll be one of the UK team hiking (or attempting to hike) 30km in the Yorkshire Dales, taking in Ingleborough and Pen Y Ghent. Any donation you are able to make will be much appreciated, and will go straight to the DEC to help those in need.
