Iceland Trek · 6 October 2016 to 10 October 2016 ·

Every day 250 people in the UK start losing their sight. With your help, we can be there when people need us most, support independent living, create an inclusive society and prevent avoidable sight loss. Every pound you raise will help create a future where sight loss is no longer a barrier.

Story

In May I was 60 Years Young and decided, as part of my bucket list I wanted to have a once in a lifetime experience that will challenge every part of my being and in doing so helping a cause that we can all relate to in one way or another as we get older.

From 6th-10th October, over 3 days I will be trekking 18 miles per day across the southern region of Hyerageroi, with 3 nights sleeping in traditional mountain huts.

Iceland hosts some of Europe's greatest wilderness areas, which are home to active volcanoes, sheer granite mountains, glaciers, thundering waterfalls, boiling mud pools and spouting geysers.

This is my chance to see it all first hand, challenging myself to the extreme and at the same time supporting such a very worthy charity.

                                   So Role on the Training!!

In the next 15 Minutes, someone in the UK will be told: "You are losing your sight"  The RNIB give the practical and emotional support to help people who are blind and partially sighted face the future with confidence and live independently. By supporting this worthy cause we're making every day better for those people affected.

A very big thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page and if you can spare a few pennies that would be amazing.

By donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, safe and totally secure - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted mail.  Once you donate your money goes direct to the charity, so its the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cuttings costs for the charity.
