I want to achieve something memorable following my 70th birthday - I plan to walk from Lands End to John O'Groats in less than 70 days and raise more than £70,000 for Hope and Homes for Children. I'm planning to start walking in April 2025, so, plenty of time for you to tell your friends before then. See the full story at https://www.pink-narrowboat.com/lejog.html

If I have to buy items or services, I will pay for them out of my own money. All donations will go to the charity. Donations made on JustGiving go directly to Hope and Homes for Children (nowhere near my bank account)!

Every child needs someone who supports them and takes care of them, who wants them to be happy. Every child needs to know they are loved and that they belong. Children never belong in orphanages. They don’t protect children, they harm them. And they are never necessary. Every child needs a family.

Hope and Homes for Children have been working to transform the lives of children in orphanages since 1994. Today they are working with children in 30 countries with teams of skilled, local child-protection professionals to keep families together & reunite or build new families.

NOTE: If you pay tax in the UK, please remember to Gift Aid your donation (it adds 25% at no cost to you). You can amend the amount you "tip" Just Giving, if you change it to a custom amount of £0 then you will not be tipping them anything.
