In June, Martin is hoping to travel to Uganda with READ International, in order to teach and build a library to improve and sustain a viable education system in one of the world's most impoverished countries.

We, as a team, are raising money to pay for the building materials and tools needed to construct the library, as well as literature to subsequently fill it.

We will be competing as part of a relay team in the 2011 Belfast Marathon.

On behalf of Martin, Scott, Ben, Keavy and Lauren, thank you for reading and for all contributions you feel you are able to make, we appreciate every single penny!
