Story
In the summer of 2017, I am heading out to St Lucia, a small village in South Africa, to volunteer on a fresh water project. The program involves the building of a well to provide a source of fresh water to the village; recontruction of schools and orphanages and teaching basic english and sanitation to the children.
All the money raised goes towards the materials needed for the program and to train local trades people to continue with the work once we leave.
A donation of any amount will help change the lives of children and families in need.
To aid my fundraising, I am running the Newport Half Marathon this March. I absolutely hate running so this challenge will be tough. Please support me by donating towards the project, even if it is just to see me suffer!

***£50 mint and mustard voucher available to WIN*** In March, Dad (injury permitting) and I, are taking on our first half marathon run 🏃🏼🏃🏻 to try and raise money for this project. If you know me, then you'll know running is not my forte (at all - as in i struggle to run 400m) so this challenge is daunting to say the least!! If anyone is willing to sponsor us for this event, you will be entered into a draw to win a £50 voucher for mint and mustard 🍵🍚🍴
