Story
Anybody that knows me will know I have two passions in life- music and animals. Every year, I try my best to raise money for my favourite foundation, Animals Asia. This amazing charity was founded by an incredible woman named Jill who saw the plite of the moon bears and pretty much single handedly started changing foreign policy, saving and rehabilitating the bears, re-educating communities about bile farming and as a conseqence, created the first moon bear sanctuaries across Asia. If you could see just how much love, compassion and energy is exhausted everyday by her and her team, you would be equally inspired to dedicating your time to such an awesome team of people. Last year, I wrote a charity Album and special song for them and have so far raised just over £1000, which may seem a fair amount, but would only cover a small amount of rehab for just one bear in one month. This year, in just over a month, I want to walk the length of Great Britain as a solo woman, which I think is a pretty epic thing and will hopefully raise alot of awareness for such an incredible charity. Its an overwhelming 1,207 mile trip which i will be travelling and it will take me 90 days to complete, but that is nothing compared to the miles travelled daily by the Animals Asia Team. with the sale of my charity album (please see my facebook page ‘walking Great Bearitain’ to purchase) and this walk, It would absolutely make my day to be able to donate a minimum of £2000 to help with the rehabilitation of bears rescued from the physically cruel and psychologically scarring bear bile trade, It would be such a great honour to be able to hand them the full amount. Please, if you can spare even a pound, a pledge would make such a massive difference to one of these gentle souls. You can read all about the amazing work they do on the Animals Asia web page. Thankyou for considering donating, #untilthecrueltyends #pledgeapint #animalsasia
