Story
We, Gordon Sutherland and Jim Lang, are walking the Southern Upland Way to raise funds for The Grove Special School in Berwick-upon-Tweed. The Grove Special School is a school for children with complex needs. The school provides outstanding provision to ensure each child fulfils their potential. The staff team are committed to making this possible through their dedication and love. We are fundraising to replace the School's (very) old minibus. The bus enables the staff to take the children out and about in the community, enhancing the provision the school can offer and enabling the children to access experiences and events that their families may find challenging to attend themselves.
The walk will take place during the first 2 weeks of May and covers a distance of 215 miles with a total ascent of 8450 metres - almost the height of Mount Everest! We would be very grateful if you could make a donation. Thank you in advance for your support.
Gordon and Jim
