Drusillas Supports the WOLO 100
Fundraising for Wolo Foundation
Story
In partnership with our Charity of the Year, WOLO Foundation, Drusillas is giving away a family ticket bundle in support of the WOLO 100 challenge - a 100 mile multi-day run and trek through the South African bush in the Province of KwaZulu Natal, to raise money for local families affected by cancer.
Wolo Foundation help families living in Sussex through their cancer journeys. They support them by offering practical help and support to make their day-to-day lives easier. They work with local businesses and communities to offer families a wealth of services to support them through their diagnosis, treatment and beyond. Statistics show that 1 in 2 people in the UK born after 1960 will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Life is precious - we need to make the most of it - we only live once - WOLO!
The amazing team and volunteers at WOLO will be trekking 100 miles across Africa from 1-10 October, culminating in the release of a giraffe as part of a conservation effort for this vulnerable species.
So we are calling on all YOU animal lovers to help choose a fitting name for the giraffe and raise some donations for WOLO's incredible 100 mile challenge!

Wolo 100 Trail Run & Trek: 1st - 10th October 2022
The Wolo 100 is a multi-day Run & Trek covering 100 miles over 6 days making use of a network of game paths within thousands of hectares of South African bush in the Province of KwaZulu Natal. Located on the eastern seaboard/Indian Ocean.
This 10 multi-day journey through the African bush, The Tugela River and rural Zulu communities will give you the opportunity to run or trek 100 miles through areas where there is plenty of wildlife, wonderful scenery and friendly people. The terrain is varied, but is predominantly undulating game paths dotted with tall standing aloes and acacias. There will be an underlying ethos of nature conservation, culminating in the release of a giraffe to help increase the gene pool of the current population, which is essential to the future of this vulnerable species.
