Story
Thank you for taking the time to visit our fundraising page.
In March 2008 we will be undertaking the challenge of crossing Costa Rica in Central America over a period of 7 days.
Using only our mountain bikes, small kayaks, river rafts and our feet! We will cycle a total of 156km, hike 26km, raft 30km and sea kayak 35km through one of the most ecologically and climatically diverse terrain’s in the world. The course taken will lead us through remote mountain ranges; Crocodile invested rivers and dense thick Jungle, which is home to such animals like Scorpions, Spiders, Snakes and funny looking frogs.
Please remember this isn't a holiday that we're taking part in, but a minimum of 8hrs pure exercise for 7 days in staggering temperatures.
The money raised will help change young lives in the UK. These young people have often struggled at school, have been in care, are long-term unemployed or have been in trouble with the law. By giving practical and financial support the Prince’s Trust help to develop skills such as confidence and motivation, which helps these young people get their lives back on track.
In 30 years, The Prince of Wales’s charity has helped over half a million young people and continues to support 100 more every day.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Prince's Trust 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.
Thank you once again for your support.
