Story

Firstly A very big thank you for landing once again on the Team Zulu fundraising page - some of you for the 10th year - We made it Six intrepid members of Team Zulu who all made it safely home - My big thanks and mentions in dispatches  to our stellar support team Judi, Michelle,Tim and Suzie, the cakes, teas water and nostalgia foods kept our spirits going and morale high - Some field promotions below - Thank you to all who have supported and donated and for those who continue to do so over the next few days 

A Big congratulations to Mark and Tom Strain who due to illness completed the walk on 11th July. also in reverse - Medals have been conferred and field promotions awarded  

Officially the walk on the 3rd of July was  cancelled for this year - However in a time when everything we have known seems to have been thrown into chaos we have decided to do the walk, observing all social distancing guidelines - but this year on the 4th July and in reverse so from Malvern to Bewdley- The same distance just a different approach 

Whilst the world is adjusting of this pandemic,  St.Richard's Hospice has continued to provide care for it's patients - but with all fundraising events cancelled they need your support now more than ever - So please help us raise as much as we can for this amazing charity 

Hard to believe that on the 4th of July 2020 Team Zulu will be celebrating 10 years of doing the walk - 

To give you a flavour of what we do -  34 miles - 74,000 steps,One 5th the Ascent of Everest - climbing the Empire State Building 143 times.
