Story
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.
I am proud to be signed up to Miles for Meals 2022, which involves me raising funds for Celtic FC Foundation and a long standing partner, Mary’s Meals. Funds raised will be shared equally, with net proceeds devoted to supporting the work of both organisations in alleviating food poverty, locally and internationally.
This brand new initiative will involve a three-day trek, starting from where it all began for Mary’s Meals - ‘The Shed’ in Dalmally, Argyll and Bute - and ending back at Celtic Park. The total distance we will cover on foot is in the region of 60 miles including large parts of the West Highland Way.
In the lead up to the event which is over three full days from Thursday 9th - Saturday 11th June 2022, I will be looking to build up fitness levels that will see me complete a challenging journey that is well out of my typical comfort zone.
For the training part and the event itself I will need all the support and encouragement I can get, both emotionally and of course financially for the charities too. All effort on my part will be physical and mentally enduring, so my commitment is to do my absolute best and I sincerely thank everyone who can support in any capacity in advance for playing your part too. You never walk alone when you do things together.
NB....I have already covered all costs out of my own pocket for the registration fees, travel & accommodation which means that all donations are fully eligible for Gift Aid, which in turn increases the impact the fundraising will have when split evenly across both charities to help them continue the wonderful work they do.
Follow my journey and I will share some of the challenges, adventures and craic in story and in picture as we go about making a difference for others less fortunate.
Thank you for any support you can give. God bless.
