4 days before I am due to have my hip replaced I am going to walk 6k for children like Grace. 

At daybreak, Grace's tiny 5 year old feet swiftly carry her along the narrow dirt path. Grace begins her journey for water with her sister, Judith who is a month shy of her third birthday, struggling to keep up as they make their way through the high grasses that stand far taller than both girls.This 2.8 kilometre walk in Uganda, isn't for fun or to take in the beauty of a peaceful morning. It's out of necessity - Grace and Judith are making the day's first trek to get water for the family.With the nearest borehole about 6 kilometres away, the journey for clean water is more than 12 kilometres. So the family instead settles for contaminated swamp water that's half that distance - about 2.8 kilometres away.Grace and Judith must make their daily journey, so the family can survive. With your help we can provide Grace, Judith and more children like them with life-changing clean water by taking part in the Global 6K.Every step you take is one they won't.
