<p>Although it barely seems possible, it's now almost a year since David died.&nbsp; In his memory and in honour of a cause that he felt so passionately about, a team of his family and friends are walking 43 miles across Wiltshire - David's old stomping ground and the place he loved most.</p> <p>David always loved a good challenge, so we've set ourselves the target of walking 43 miles&nbsp;in one day.&nbsp; On Saturday 13th August, a group of his family and friends will be setting off at&nbsp;3.30am,&nbsp;hoping to reach his family home by&nbsp;8pm the same evening.&nbsp;</p> <p>We've chosen Afghanaid because David spent 18 months in Afghanistan and it was a place he cared deeply about. Afghanaid is an international humanitarian and development non-governmental organisation (NGO) which has worked alongside Afghan communities for nearly three decades. They currently work directly with over 1 million adults and children focusing on long term sustainable development in some of Afghanistan's poorest rural areas. After much deliberation and consideration of a range of charities, David's brother Chris decided on Afghanaid because of its vision (which David shared) of a peaceful and secure Afghanistan, where Afghans exercise their rights to political freedom and economic opportunity in a country where institutions are held accountable.</p> <p>We would love it if you could&nbsp;help us support this worthy cause in honour of David. If you are a UK taxpayer, please also Gift Aid your donation to help us raise even more. Every pound raised will help spur us on over all those hills&nbsp;to a triumphant finish when we reach our target!</p>
