Fundraising for NSPCC
Story
In Feb/Mar 2010 we will be taking part in our Company's BGL Charity Trek in South Africa in aid of the NSPCC. We have been selected from over 120 applicants to form part of a team of 30 attempting the challenge.
The nine day adventure includes a challenging 6 day trek in the Cedarberg Wilderness, a mountainous region with peaks up to 1800 meters (6,000 ft) plus an ascent of Table Mountain in Cape Town. We will be walking distances of up to 22km a day in covering a number of difficult terrains with extremes of temperatures, climate and altitude. We will also be enjoying basic facilities such as long drop toilets and primitive washing facilities.
Each of the Trekkers has committed to raise £3000 for the NSPCC! If we all meet our fundraising target we will raise a huge £42,000. This sum can make a real difference to the kids that the NSPCC help, with your support and donations we hope we will hit and fingers crossed exceed our target figure.
So dig deep, make a difference, and please donate as much as you can!
