Story

Hey all!!

So you might know I'm doing Bummit this year. That means I'm hitch-hiking across europe to Budapest! I've got 7 days, £15 and my team mate, Luke, to get there. Theres a secret half way point which we'll only get told on the first day which we have to get to before going on to Budapest!

So i was hoping you'd sponser me, be it a pound or a hundred(?), everything will help. I've got to raise £200 to be able to go.

The charities you will be supporting are :

Catch 22 – this provides a service to 15 to 25 year olds involved in criminal activities, these people have the potential to offend, and they are offered counselling and education. This charity works with their families and communities so that young people become more productive, independent and therefore the whole community benefits. Over the years, they have worked with tens of thousands of people for young people in difficult situations.

Fable – this charity promotes awareness of epilepsy through education and publicity with money used towards Vagus Nerve Stimulation Therapy which is a treatment for those with epilepsy which cannot be controlled with medicine alone. They support the Epilepsy Information Drop in Centre in Sheffield and help the family of those affected by this condition.

Both charities are based in the Sheffield area with the money given locally meaning Bummit is helping to improve the local area.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now!

Thank you sooo so much!

I'll update you all on how the hitch goes when i get back!! :)
