Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Edinburgh Sick Kids Friends Foundation gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Thank you for your support.

We have now completed all the walks at a total of 45 miles.  We have been so lucky with the weather and had 4 beautiful days. 

Big well done to everyone who took part in the walks, will be updating this site with sponsor totals as they come in. 

  Must say a big special thanks to East Lothian Private Hire who collected a group of us from Dunbar, drove us home and then very kindly donated the fare to the charity.   Also other thanks to various companies along the way,  The Old Aberlady Inn, The Nether Abbey Hotel,  The Mcdonald Marine Hotel,  The Volunteer Arms, and finally the Snack Stop on the A1 layby just before the cockburnspath turnoff.

 

About the charity

We aim to support every baby, child, young person and family that visits Edinburgh's children's hospital by providing daily activities, ward-based youth work, a family support service, hospital shop, and by funding life-changing medical equipment and ground breaking research.
