Raising funds for Shishukunj, a UK registered Children's Charity

Hi!

I need all your help and support I can get! I am embarking on a crazy challenge...

...to walk 96 miles over 4 days on the ‘West Highland Way’ in Scotland.

The Route starts just outside Glasgow and finishes at Fort William, at the foot of Ben Nevis. 

We are a team of 28 walkers and 4 volunteers, and have been training hard over the past few weeks. During the 4 days of our trek, we will be walking upto 26 miles a day!

You may ask why would anyone want to walk 96 miles in 4 days?!! This is a personal challenge to go beyond my comfort zone and do something challenging enough, whilst raising funds for a worthwhile cause. This route is also arguably the ‘most scenic route in the UK’, and I love the outdoors, so I am looking forward to the walk! Check out their website - www.west-highland-way.co.uk/home.asp.

I must confess that another reason why I wanted to walk this distance was to lose weight and get fitter!! But to my dismay, I have not lost any weight whilst training! :-( So my conclusion is that walking does not help to lose weight!!

I am raising funds for Shishukunj, a UK registered Children's Charity dedicated to the development of children both here in the UK and abroad. Supported largely by a strong volunteer force, Shishukunj has undertaken great work in the UK and globally since 1941. Please do visit their website www.shishukunj.org.uk. I have been associated with Shishukunj since 1974 – for 40 years! Every penny raised through your donation will go towards supporting children directly. So please give whatever you can and help me reach my target.

Don't forget to tick the box to reclaim Gift Aid on your donation if you're a UK tax payer. Virgin Money Giving will pass this on in full to charity, making your donation go even further. I really appreciate all your support and thank you for your donation.

PLEASE dig deep! Every Penny Helps!
