The Duke of Edinburgh's Award High Atlas Challenge · 29 September 2009 ·

We’re more determined than ever to make sure new generations, especially young people from disadvantaged groups, can discover the power of DofE.

Story

Thanks for taking the time at looking at what I and my 3 colleagues are trying to achieve. The plan is to take 4 days to cross the Atlas Mountains in order to raise £2,500 each; this amount will enable 10 young people who would otherwise not have the chance, to complete their DofE programme and give them a chance to develop their confidence and teamwork to help them in life.

 

How can I help?

Please make a donation through my Just Giving site; by using this site, your money will be sent directly to The DofE in order to make sure that Gift Aid is reclaimed.

 

The Challenge

 

The challenge is to cross the Atlas Mountain Range by foot, bike and 4x4 in less than four days. I will be in a team of four and we will be tested both physically and mentally during this challenge to win the DofE Morocco Trophy, racing up to 30 miles per day by bike and completing survival and logistic challenges en route to win points.

 

Thanks for your help!
