Slow Travel Girls 2018 "Walking. Scotland" · 24 April 2018

5.4 million children across the world are currently trapped in orphanages – even though 80% of them have family they could live with if they had the right support. Orphanages harm children, depriving them of love and exposing them to abuse. Your support helps us get children to back to family.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We, Ged (Glasgow) and Erin (Chicago) walked between Cardiff and London via The Thames in 2015. 

This time we will walk between all 7 cities in Scotland - Inverness, Aberdeen, Dundee, Perth, Edinburgh, Stirling and Glasgow. This is around 300 miles...a similar distance to our previous challenge. 

We believe that every child deserves to grow up within the love of a family, rather than in an institution.  Ged visited Ukraine in 2008 and saw the incredible work of Hope and Homes for Children and the difference made to the children who had been reunited with their families, fostered or adopted. 

We are also looking forward to meeting children in schools along our route to tell them about the benefits of walking, connect them with other schools in other cities and have them wave us off!

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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
