South Coast Challenge · 27 August 2016

5.4 million children across the world are currently trapped in orphanages – even though 80% of them have family they could live with if they had the right support. Orphanages harm children, depriving them of love and exposing them to abuse. Your support helps us get children to back to family.

Story

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

What better way to fundraise for charity than by doing something ridiculous... Such as walking 100k (62 miles! Yes that's about two and a half marathons!)... And it wouldn't be a challenge if that's all we did, so we will be doing it nonstop, over one weekend!

I have had the joy of seeing many others cross that finish line, and I have also witnessed the struggles that most go through - 100k nonstop, through the day and night, and with no sleep... It's not a walk in the park! So I think it is about time I didn't just cheer those people over the finish line, but instead took part myself.


Why am I doing this? Well, I am taking on this challenge to raise funds for Hope and Homes for Children. The money raised will be making an enormous difference to the lives of many vulnerable children and families across the world. At Hope and Homes for Children they believe that, above all else, every child should grow up within a caring family. They work together with children, their families and communities to ensure that children grow up in an environment where they are loved, cared for, and have the opportunity to fulfil their potential.
