Our personal message:

In an effort to raise money for New Build Uganda on the 14th June......James and James (Jamie)  battled against the elements on a grueling 20-mile trek in the Brecon Beacons dressed as a Gorilla and a ManChicken.  The Sun was beating hard and after 10.5 sweaty hours of pain staking endurance the pair returned to base victorius and fufilled having conquered mountains of over 2400 feet.

-

Gorilla History: Like Wales Uganda is known for its trekking but has the added bonus of exotic animals like Gorillas. James is looking to promote these beautiful misunderstood creatures to the nice people and local wildlife (sheep) of Wales.

-

ManChicken History: This will be to honour the memories of the two dear cockerels that James (Jamie) became very fond of last year in Uganda but then unfortunately had to watch get killed, de-feathered and eat on the day known to all as Chicken Wednesday.  


For the past 4 years New Build Uganda has been carrying out annual school building projects in deprived rural areas of , easternAfrica.    This year New Build are returning to the Mubende District where they will embark on two school related building project.

Challenge 2 COMPLETE: Both James and James (Jamie) competed in the British 10k on the 6th July and yes the chicken and gorilla did return.  James (Jamie) managed to complete the race in under 47.30 minutes, James W took a little longer. 

Thank you to everyone for all their support thus far.....
