Fundraising Update

A quick update on my progress with regards to my plans to walk the entire length of The South Downs Way, from Winchester to Eastbourne (100 miles) next April in support of Cancer Research UK.

* The proposed date is scheduled to be from April 23rd to April 27th.
* Cancer Research have contacted me & confirmed that they will officially support me.
* Fundraising materials have just arrived in the post!
* South Downs National Park have been notified with regards to my plans.
* I have consulted with my employer who will match any donations upto £300

The provisional route is anticipated to be as follows:

23/04/12 - Winchester to Buriton   (24 miles)

24/04/12 - Buriton to Amberley      (22 miles)

25/04/12 - Amberley to Fulking     (17 miles)

26/04/12 - Fulking to Rodmell       (17 miles)

27/04/12 - Rodmell to Eastbourne (20 miles)

Please find attached a link which gives anybody the opportunity to sponsor me or make a donation, although as the event is well over 6 months away I wouldn't expect much activity as yet. As I have previously stated, I just want to do this event properly, with good preparation and organisation, which is why I am so far in advance at this stage. Also, by informing everybody early it gives people the chance to think about joining me on my walk if they felt so inclined?

Although I share and post my blog on Facebook, some of my work colleagues may not be able to access the information about my event via this social network, so I shall also be circulating an e-mail to those individuals shortly. Next up will be a blog giving some further reasons why I'm doing this walk, followed by another blog with answers to frequently asked questions (FAQ's).

Many thanks in advance for all your support.

Kind regards.
