Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
To celebrate my friend's 50th birthday, Ken Watson, we wanted to do something different: so we decided to walk the full length of the Teesdale Way from Dufton in Cumbria to Redcar,100 miles in 4 days.
There are a number of reasons why we decided to do this:
- To prove that despite our advancing years we can still undertake a demanding physical challenge.
-The River Tees provides uswith the means to carry out our mutual sport of rowing so it seemed apt to link it to the walk.
- We want to make a real difference to the lives of people where water is a gift not just a means of recreation, the charity we are supporting will enable communities in Uganda to have safe drinking water & sanitation. In Uganda 5,000 children die each day of diseases caused by unclean water & poor sanitation. Your donation will help many families to move from sickness to health.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now.
