Great Ormond Street Namibia trek · 15 May 2008

We are Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity. We stop at nothing to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. Because we believe no childhood should be lost to illness.

Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. 

I have just returned fromAfrica and my third fund raising trek on behalf of Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity.  Over 6 demanding and challenging days I trekked through the Namib Desert and Brandberg Wilderness, covering over 90 KM and enduring temperatures of 38/39 degrees C. On the longest day we walked for 12 hours and encountered a puff adder and hyenas!

Although very well known GOSH is a medium size charity and it does not have enough in reserves to fund its long overdue and ambitious building programme that will make a difference to the lives of sick children around the world.  

With your support I have already raised around £6000 for GOSH on previous treks and I would be very grateful for any support you can give this time. I have paid all the direct costs myself and ALL the money I raise will go to the charity to help pay for a new cardiac theatre that will provide state-of-the-art surgical facilities and will offer video training facilitites to hospitals across the world.

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. 

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. Please sponsor me now and be assured that your money really will count.

Thank you for your support
