Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My story is a simple one. This year is my 25th Anniversary of my business - and I am getting to the stage in life when 'The Bucket List' appears.  One item on my list was a Charity Trek somewhere. So having done much research choosing between Sahara Desert, Grand Canyon, Great Wall of China etc, I chose this Dalai Lama Trek. It is an 11 day experience - 6 days actually trekking - starting and finishing in Dharasalama, the Dalai Lama's home city.

Having plumped for this Trek - I had to decide which Charity - I opted for 2 charities - Flintshire Foodbank (see separate fundraising page) and Tong Len UK. 

Why Tong Len UK ? I have never travelled to Asia or the Far East - so I did some research on the area I am trekking. What an amazing part of the world this is. I came across the Tong Len website (www.tong-len.org) - Do have a look at it ! - I read about the plight of the displaced people and help Tong Len give. I

The great thing is that when I am on the trek I will be able to see first hand the work of Tong Len before the serious work of trkking actually starts.

My family think I am totally potty going on such a trek at my age - but are giving full support. I hope you agree it is a worthwhile cause and that you can support me & raise lots of much needed funds
