Story

<p>Hello! I don't usually like to beg money off people so I'm not going to start now (although maybe this is a form of passive aggressive begging?!).</p> <p>BUT:</p> <p>If you have a few quid to spare, or even pence, I'd be so pleased to get it off ya! ha. I'm doing the 3 peak challenge (the Yorkshire one)...It's basically a 24.5 mile walk with three mountains thrown in which are about 5,000 foot or something. Tall anyway.&nbsp;And I'm going to (try and) do it in 12 hours on the 3rd March 2012.</p> <p>I've chosen to do this for a&nbsp;charity called HI-CAP UK, which is a charity for young orphaned children in the Himalayas. The charity helps to clothe, house, feed and educate them...The lady who set it up, is Freda. She went over there trekking a few years back...saw what poverty the kids and families were living in...She then went home, left her job and sold everything in order to build a home for the children. Inspirational eh?</p> <p>Even if you don't donate now, check the page out on facebook, when you see the difference in their little faces from having a warm place to live and healthy food, well, it's the sort of thing that makes you want to beg people for money. So...I thank you in advance for any donations! :-)</p> <p>Note: I best get training :-/ This is pretty ambitious for someone who nearly flakes after climbing up Roseberry Topping&nbsp;xx</p>
