Queen's Hall Arts is the creative heart of local community, delivering great arts experiences and supporting a diverse range of events, community programmes and practical workshops, serving West Northumberland, the wider North East and beyond.

I am really impressed with their out reach programme and so jumped at the chance to fundraise for them via the Sahara Trek challenge.

And a challenge it will be! I have been training hard for over a year, via keep fit classes, river swimming, and racking up the miles around my local lanes, on dunes and with friends. I'm so much fitter for it and with your help QHA can reap the financial benefits too.
