Just wondering if anyone can help me with this?

St Barnabas Hospice's are looking for businesses to support their Easter fundraiser. Would you be able to have a basket of knitted chicks with a crème egg inside to sell on behalf of St Barnabas. The baskets hold 20 chicks selling at £3 each.

If you are able to help please let me know!
Many thanks xx

Beautiful day for a training walk here in North Wales. Not long to go

Today would have been Chris' 56 birthday and it's a year since we launched our FB page to raise money in his memory.

Just to let you all know the Toubkal Trek has been postponed again due to covid19. It will now take place 18th - 22nd May 2022.
Myself, Jacob and Reuben will still be taking part and all the money you have already generously donated will still go towards our goal of £3950

We still have some way to reach our target so if you haven't already donated we would be very grateful for a birthday donation. Please see link below for our justgiving page.

We are hoping to plan some fundraising events later in the summer/autumn once restrictions are lifted. Keep your eye out for further details coming soon.

Again thank you for your support.

Today's walk, a bit longer again. Windy but dry crossing newly seeded fields.

St Barnabas needs your donations even more through COVID 19, they've had to shut their shops and cancel their fundraising events. It cost 11 million per year to provide their free services to families in need. Around 50% of this is raised through fundraising and charity shops. Please donate if you can ❤️ thank you x

Today's walk was from home and wasn't so long, cold, windy and hailstones. Taken my total to 44 miles this week. Jules

Jacob, Reuben and I decided we wanted to do something special together this year to mark the 10th anniversary since their dad Chris died.

St Barnabas supported Chris at home when he was terminally ill, so we've chosen to join St Barnabas and trek up mount Toubkal in Morocco, as this is something Chris would love to have done.

I'm really looking forward to doing the trek, but also I'm very worried as this is going to be a massive challenge for me to get to the summit. It'll also be a challenge for both Jacob and Reuben to have to do this with me in tow, I promise boys I'll try not to be to annoying!

We have a lot of money to raise (£6000.00) for this fabulous charity but I know with our wonderful family and friends support we can nail this.

Thank you for taking the time to look at our page xx

We will be conquering North Africa’s highest mountain, Mount Toubkal in aid of St Barnabas Hospice.

The highest mountain in North Africa: Jebel Toubkal at 4167m, situated in the heart of the Toubkal National Park. Mount Toubkal has captivated mountaineers for centuries.

Your ascent up the rocky giant of North Africa is no picnic, but is accessible to anyone in good shape and hungry for a thrilling mountain adventure. From the bustling Marrakech you will venture into the heart of the High Atlas through traditional Berber communities which line the route. You’ll have plenty of time to learn their customs through village visits and overnight stays in the villages & camps with hearty home-cooked meals. The views on the way up are spectacular, but nothing compares to what you’ll see (and feel) at the top. From the summit of Toubkal you will experience
stunning 360-degree panoramic views which extend across the rocky Atlas ranges and southwards to Jebel Sahro and the Sahara
