Story

Dear All Friends and Family

It’s the big year of turning 50 and being nearly half a century old, I thought it was time to to give something back, alongside trying to get fit and healthy and lose some of that middle age spread! Well, here goes.

After watching the film 'The Way', it really enticed me to want to sign up to do the Camino Santiago . So I have, I am now doing the Portuguese Way in May 2023 – I will be embarking on a 100KM walk over 5 days from the Galician town of Tui to Santiago de Compostela in Spain,. For those of you who know me well, you will know, this is a real challenge, for many reasons, one being I have been recovering from an ankle operation.

I will be raising funds for Self Help Africa, who are tackling poverty and improving the lives of local communities in Africa. 

Please help me reach my fundraising goal with a donation, however small, it all makes a difference. Your help will give communities the opportunities to develop their own education, farming and economic future.

On another note, if any of my local friends want to join me
on a walk over the next few months, please give me a call.

I will be posting up dates on my Facebook page and keeping you all up to date on how I am getting on !!! –

Thank you so much, 

Love 

Monica, Monnie, Mon, Nica.. xxx
