Trek China 2008 for NDCS
Fundraising for The National Deaf Children's Society
Story
Hi
This event takes place from 4th October 2008.
This is my second event on behalf the National Deaf Children's Society - the previous trip involved tearing around the Amazon in February 2006.
This trek is to the Great Wall of China, which is going to be hard work - especially as I am still getting fit. . I think that it presents a slightly more varied landscape than in York, (where I live) and I believe the wall is also slightly longer!
My daughter Amy was due to come on the trip - but had to drop out at fairly short notice - she transferred a significant amount of her sponsorship across to me - so thanks Amy and to her sponsors!
See webpage below for details of the event:

The charity does some great things for deaf children and young adults and a cause I am pleased to be able to help. I have so much more deaf awareness than I had previously, which has led to another ambition - learning to sign (at least at a basic level) before I go on this event.
If you want to more about the NDCS and its work - then visit:

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The National Deaf Children's Society 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.
