I'll be skating the length of Wales from the most Northern to Southern mainland points. It's a 230 mile distance which should be tackled in 5-7 days in late September (date tbc), unsupported, camping wild. The point of this trek is to raise a bit of money and awareness to the crisis in Yemen through Islamic relief. Read more about the crisis below and at:  https://www.islamic-relief.org.uk/yemen-emergency-appeal/

Please donate if you can.

"24 million people are in need of humanitarian aid, with families facing ongoing armed conflict, displacement, disease and economic decline, an estimated 24 million people are now in need of humanitarian aid to survive.Yemen now officially hosts the worlds largest human-induced food security crisis. Families and communities have been torn apart and left without even the most basic of living essentials: 

- 19.7 million people need basic healthcare

- Almost 18 million people are in need of water and sanitation facilities

- Over 3 million people have been left displaced by conflict

The UN has warned that the clock is ticking on the Coronavirus threat in Yemen. With the country having registered its first official case, Yemen is gearing itself up to fight this devastating pandemic, but unfortunately the country has limited resources that allow for detection, isolation and treatment of the disease. More than five years of conflict has deepened Yemen’s poverty, devastated its infrastructure, and caused widespread hunger and suffering and this disease is a second front that Yemen is unprepared for."
