I am once again running the London Marathon and have this time chosen a fantastic new charity to support this year.

The Calvert Trust aims to enable people with disabilities, together with their families and friends, to achieve their potential through the challenge of outdoor adventure in the countryside.

 

They aim to do this by providing:

• A wide range of adventurous outdoor activities, meaningful challenge and adventure within a framework of safety
• Skilled, qualified and caring staff able to fulfil the needs of visitors
• Accommodation appropriate to the needs of the visitors
• Facilities for families and friends to share the enjoyment and experience

The benefits and enjoyment of the activities will be offered to all, irrespective of ability.  These benefits include:

• The enrichment in the life of each individual through adventure and personal achievement
• The chance to enjoy countryside of exceptional natural beauty
• Recreational opportunities that can be transferred into everyday living
• Personal development and rehabilitation leading to integration

I would extremely grateful, and delighted, if you are able to sponsor me. Please do take a look at their website for further information at http://www.calvert-trust.org.uk/ and then please donate whatever you feel is appropriate. 

Thank you
