My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The Challenge

Thanks to Everyone to has supported and donated so far, the amount of money raised is way beyond any of our expectations. If you would like a report then email me at will.barber2@googlemail.com

On the 10th-12th July I took part in Beechen Cliff School's annual Centurions Challenge. The aim, to walk 100 miles in just 48 hours. The walk is designed to test both physical and mental endurance, taking place along the Kennet and Avon canal, from Bath to Hungerford and back. To find out more about the challenge visit the Beechen Cliff website www.beechencliff.org.uk

Why?

The charity Dorothy House was chosen by my Mum Sara Barber, who regularly attended the hospice for daycare. Like so many other families, we really appreciated the great work that the hospice carried out. To find our more about the Hospice, visit www.dorothyhouse.co.uk.

I hope to raise as much as possible for the Hospice, and to raise awareness of it's work in the community.

I also like a challenge!

Thanks for your support, we appreciate any donations you are able to make
