Two 'friends', if I can call them that after this, suggested that if  I camp outside in a tent during lockdown that they would sponsor me. Knowing me as they do, this is no easy undertaking! I LOVE my bed, I absolutely do not love camping!!! As I sat here weighing up the pros and cons, I decided it is impossible for me to not take up this offer of sponsorship to raise money for our local NHS heroes and hospitals who we rely upon so much. They are amazing. We are all so very grateful so it is now my turn to contribute in a small way. I promise I will regularly update my page with photos and comments as I begin and continue on this journey. Ian, Ella, Ollie and Otto have all offered to take a turn to sleep in the tent with me so that I am never alone! HEREFOREACHOTHER therefore seems a fitting charity to support and is a worthy cause. Please dig deep to help me through this campathon - I haven't camped for this long in over 35 years - I doubt I ever will again after this!!! Think of me tonight as you climb into your warm beds all snuggly and comfortable. Listen to the wind and rain and think of me!!!! Here's to a great cause and my show of support during Covid 19!
