In December 2017 a brand new Girlguiding Rangers unit opened in my local village called 1st Adlington Rangers. This is a Girlguiding unit for girls aged 14 - 18 and enables us to work towards various different qualifications and achievements, as well as learn, develop and most importantly, have fun! Adlington have never before had a Rangers unit so this is a very exciting venture. There are currently have 9 of us in the unit and we are working very hard in the new guiding program.

5 of us have now decided that we want to work towards our D of E award within the Rangers unit and are excited to start work towards the award. Part of this award requires us to go on an expedition, and this needs some very specific kit, which, as a new unit we do not have. to be able to complete our expedition we need the following items:

Tents - £125 each (need 3)

Trangia cooker - £54 each (need 1 - would ideally like 2)

Trangia gas burner - £54 each (need 1 - would ideally like 2)

Trangia fuel - £15 each (need 1 - would ideally like 2)

Rucksacks - £45 each (need 5)

Silva compass - £18 each (need 5)

Maps - £15 each (need 5)

Expedition pack food - £5 each (need 10)

Total of this is £938 - £1061

To raise this money for our D of E, we have decided to run the Chorley 10k race. I am in no way a runner and this will be very challenging. I am hoping you will sponsor me and enable me to get the kit required. Any extra raised will be used for other items we may need, such as walking boots, sleeping bags, waterproofs etc, which otherwise they will need to source independently.

please help us to reach our goal.
