How I did it: Signed up to a trek of the Great Wall to raise money for Marie Curie Cancer Care. Trained for it! Raised over £3000 then flew to Beijing and spent 8 days trekking the Wall. Had the best time of my life and have never felt so proud and exhilarated. Read how I did it…
How I did it: With a lot of blood, sweat and tears! But also a lot of laughter! I've never felt more proud than when I reached the end of the trek. I trained for it (but not as much as I could have done) and raised over £3000 for Marie Curie Cancer Care. Read how I did it…
My dad has been diagnosed with terminal cancer and I’ve decided to raise money in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care by trekking the Great Wall of China in May 2009. Long way to go, but if anyone has a bit of spare change and they want to help this very worthy cause, please go to www.justgiving.com/lucybird2 to donate. Thanks everyone x
