Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We are 3 siblings, Eden (13), Amelie (12), and Jesse (10), planning to walk 325km in 12 days to raise money for Children North East. As a team, we will walk from St Bees on the west coast, over the Cumbrian mountains, Pennines and North Yorkshire Moors to Robin Hood's Bay on the east coast, to raise money for Children North East. 

During lockdown home-school we researched child poverty in the UK and we were sad to learn how many children in our area, possibly including some of our school friends, experience real worries in their lives, such as holiday hunger or fighting in their home, or their mum or dad being unwell.

In our research, we found Children North East, who are helping children from poor homes, and giving children who are sad and have big worries a friend and support to make their lives better. 

We also learned that because of Covid 19 lots of charities do not have enough money to do their work. So we decided to do something to raise money that is desperately needed right now, to help the children in our community. 

Please read more about Children North East and what they are doing, and please sponsor us generously to make children's lives better.

Thank you,

Eden, Amelie and Jesse Rushworth
