Hi Thanks to all our supporters. Your donations are gratefully received. It is quite an ask to raise the sums needed to get 14 young athletes and two (not so young) coaches to the event. Having said that, it is worth every penny in terms of their exposure to a World Class event. This can boost (or reinforce) their self-confidence and help them in the future. Thanks

Thanks for your support. We are getting there with the funding, but are still about £3000 shy of what we have to raise. Please spread the word amongst your friends, family, rich business owners, etc. There is an article about the UVHS team in the Evening Mail. You can see it here: http://www.nwemail.co.uk/sport/Ulverston-orienteers-ready-to-take-on-the-world-in-Sicily-81c10bca-2752-434d-bc61-fc07b2c7fc60-ds

We have just had our first two donations. We've never tried to raise money this way, so thanks to those guys for kicking us off!
