Story

Welcome to team trek for life's Justgiving page . . .

We’re setting out on a non-stop, 100km endurance trek, the 2013 Trans Pennine Challenge, to raise life giving financial aid to a truly amazing children’s charity, Brighter Future’s.

The team at Brighter Future’s has gone from housing a few homeless children, to building entire villages, care homes and support homes to provide education, nourishment and a meaningful life hundreds of orphans.

Their work is truly amazing, and it's a real pleasure to be able to support to amazing work they do.

As for our team, we’re definitely no athletes; this is a tough challenge, through both night and day, rain and sunshine, whatever happens We will complete the full 100km, without stopping, even if it means carrying each other over the finish line (which is likely!).

Our simple mission is to raise bucket loads of cash to fund the very basics, from beds and toilets to vital medicine's and health equipment.

All donations are massively appreciated and make a huge difference, so please dig deep and donate now.

Thanks for your support.
