Story

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.

A 7,000 mile overland journey to Ghana & back (we fly home, my daughter Beci & Steve do the return leg), passing through Morocco, Mauritania, Mali, Burkina Faso, Benin, Togo & Ghana. The trip will be by a specially prepared Land Rover and will take approximately 3 months.

The journey will be used as a fund-raising exercise (target £5,000, more would be fantastic) to provide wells for villages that we have links with in Northern Ghana, an area that has been devastated from the recent floods. When in Ghana we are working with a number of schools in the Eastern Region on a linking project with schools in Cornwall and the Plymouth area.

Departure date is now set for 7th October 2007.

Please dig deep and sponsor us online.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: WaterAid will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!
Many thanks for your support.
