24 mums are setting out for 3 days hiking on remote mountain trails in the Fiz Massif mountain range adjoining Mont Blanc in the French Alps. They will be hiking to altitudes of over 2300m (almost double the height of Ben Nevis), carrying all their own equipment and sleeping in remote mountain refuges. All to raise money for St George’s Ethiopia.

In order to get food supplies in such difficult times, we really need your help more than ever to support the children. All of your donations will go directly to the
