Getting things rolling

15.7.15

Today I set up my Virgin Money Giving Fundraising page, to raise money for the Forget Me Not Children's Hospice. My challenge is to trek across the Sahara over 6 days between 6-7 hours a day, carrying a backpack weighing 7 kilo's.

Of course I can do it.. I'm not as fit as I need to be for this epic experience, and so as well as organising other events to raise money, I will be doing some training, so that I don't hold other people back on the trek.

I have always enjoyed helping others, but haven't always had the free time. Now that my children are all grown up and mothers themselves, and my working hours are now considerably less than they used to be.. I can commit myself to undertaking such challenges, and hopefully raise more than the required amount.

I booked the trek only yesterday and since have been thinking of every way possible to fundraise from bag packing, to car boots etc.. but need to come up with something g original..

I've been at work all day and it's now 02:41 I can't think, I need sleep so I will leave you for today, but keep checking in and keep up to date with whats happening..
