Story

Marhaban 😊 

We all know you secretly want to put me through pain if that’s an option. And we all know I can’t stand heat or exercise if there isn’t a medal or a ball to kick along the way! So why not make me walk 60KM+ through the Sahara Desert?? You never know.. I might not make it back. And that’s definitely worth a quid or two?!.. did I mention we don’t get to ride camels, and we have to actually walk it??

By 2023, I’ll be kicking 33 and that’s not a joke unfortunately! 

But this isn’t about me. This is about pushing the limits to raise money for a charity that has been around to help those most needing it. 

Prospect Hospice are an amazing charity to help those that have fallen on an unimaginable hardship. They offer that hand when it’s most needed, and I wouldn’t want to push myself harder for a more worthy cause. 

You can read all about the official Prospect challenge I've signed up to at www.prospect-hospice.net/product/team-prospect-sahara-trek

But, I'm not just doing that...

I’ll be aiming to find raise as much as I possibly can over the next year, but will do my utmost best to hit at least £2660 needed by the charity as a bare minimum. I've already paid the deposit to pay for the trip so this is all about getting those much-needed funds to one of the most worthy causes around.

I’ll be spamming and posting all about the challenges I’ll be completing to help raise the funds throughout the year. This will be the Edinburgh marathon, obstacle course, music events and anything else I can do to help tempt you to put those generous hands in those big pockets!

So come on, together we can make a difference. I never thought I’d say it… but even if a fiver because you didn’t buy those shots… or left early instead of getting that extra pint. Everything will help, and you will all be forever legends in my eyes! Love you all ❤️
