Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am excited to say that I am lucky enough to have been selected as the 2017/18 Volunteer Zambia Staff Member! I will be working with and supporting 5 students selected to represent Northumbria University and travel to Zambia over the summer to have a positive impact upon disadvantaged communities that are often affected by high levels of unemployment, drug and alcohol abuse, exclusion and many health risks including HIV and AIDS. The group will use sport as an educational tool by coaching community sessions to help increase self and community development and quality of life.

As part of the project I have an individual fundraising target of £750 that I would greatly appreciate your help and support with. Myself and the group will be completing various events and challenges throughout the year and I would greatly appreciate your kind support with sponsorship or donations for these.

My first challenge is the Kielder Bike Ride organised by the Northumbria Sport Foundation where I will be cycling 26 miles around Kielder! I have also entered the Bamburgh Trail Marathon (all 27 miles of it!) my first ever marathon with the added (and daunting) challenge of been completely off road!!!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you in advance for your support and kind donations.
