This summer I am spending 3 weeks of my summer holidays at Ullswater in The Lake District with The Outward Bound Trust, on their Skills for Life award course. I’m really looking forward to going and will have the opportunity to have a go at a whole range of different activities such as canoeing, climbing, leadership activities and planning and undertaking expeditions.

I managed to secure a scholarship which covered a portion of the cost of the course. My mum has paid £200 towards it, and I have been baby sitting and waitressing to raise the rest of the money to cover the costs.

This year I have also discovered The Park Run which I do every Saturday morning. Running is new to me; however, I am really enjoying it and have also recently joined Avon Valley Runners. The furthest I have run to date to 5K.

I’m having a last push to try and raise the money to cover the balance and kit costs. I am training to run 10K which I intend to complete on Monday 25th June, and wondered if any of you would be kind enough to sponsor me to complete the run?

Thank you, Erin
