Story

Welcome to our Just Giving page! We are a fundraising team called 'The Sense'. Our team is made up of 7 University of Law students - Hannah Docherty, Nicole Edwards, Jess Garland, Despoina Papathoma, Melia Potamitou, Dom Robson and Callum Russell. We have been set the challenge of raising as much money for the RNIB as we can by the end of April 2015 - a challenge that we've readily accepted!

On the 17th March 2015, 6 of us abseiled down Avon Gorge - including our Team Leader, Callum, who himself is completely blind. This somewhat terrifying feat has been all so worthwhile as we raised over £1,500 in sponsorship, vastly surpassing our original target of £600!

Next on the agenda, Nicole Edwards will be taking part in the Paris Marathon on the 12th April 2015. She is keen to help Team Sense raise even more money for the RNIB and its Talking Book Service, which has been a huge support to her Grandfather. 

We are hoping that we can achieve a final target of £2,000 by the end of the challenge. All donations are much appreciated.
