You know me, always up for a challenge and this is one I'm so excited about. It gives me the opportunity to raise much needed funds for our wounded heroes and complete a personal challenge too.

The Sahara trek is a rewarding challenge through the largest non-polar desert in the world. It stretches from the snow capped High Atlas mountains of Morocco in the West, to the Red Sea coast 4800km to the East.

We will trek 100km through this varied and stunning landscape, with temperatures ranging from 25-30C during the day and falling to 10C at night.

Please give whatever you can - every penny helps and will make such a difference :-)
