Ann is walking 1000 miles
As Ann puts it
“I will walk 500 miles and then I’ll walk 500 more!“
I am completing a virtual walk from Lands End to John O’Groats and although I say virtual I am actually walking the equivalent of the full distance but around the fells of Kendal and the Lake District recording the mileage as I go. Also doing this is my friend, Jackie Duffey who is pounding the streets of Liverpool
My personal challenge is to complete the 1000 miles by 1 September
Will you sponsor me and whilst doing so help the children of Malawi, who attend school in dark overcrowded classrooms with little or no furniture or resources
£30 buys a desk and chair

£10 buys chalkboard paint
