Please sponsor me on a 50 miles trek though the Carpathian Mountains in Romania with ascents of 2,000 feet to raise money towards building a new bear sanctuary near Zatmesti.  I will also be working at the sanctuary when we finally arrive there.

There are around 5,500 wild bears in Romania which are subject to both illegal capture and use as exhibition animals. At present around 50 of these bears are in captivity across the country, used as hotel and restaurant roadside attractions, private zoo exhibits, or for tourist photos. Many of these captive bears are underfed and cruelly treated by their owners, living in cramped cages where they rarely have any shelter from the extremes of the Romanian weather.

WSPA are now in the early stages of constructing a sanctuary designed to house all of these captive bears, helping to rehabilitate captive and orphaned bear cubs and return them to the wild where possible. This is a fantastic cause so please dig deep and sponsor me today.

Thank You very much xxx
Many thanks for your support.
