Story

Thanks for taking the time to look at my page.

For this event i am walking from Pembroke in Wales, to Stevenage in Hertfordshire at a total of 264 miles. I'm doing this as if I'm going to organise a charity event, I' going to go all out to raise as much as possible. I am also organising 4 or 5 different concerts/gigs around the local area and further afield to raise more funds and awareness, and the money i make from those will be equally split across all 3 charities.

This is one of three different pages i have as i am donating to three different charities for this event.

This Page is for EJAF (Elton John's Aids Foundation). The reason i am donating funds to this charity is the work they do both helping those affected by AIDS/HIV, and helping to raise awareness and empower those affected to teach others to protect future generations. I can imagine being told that you have HIV must be one of the most internally destorying moments anyone can go through, and thats why these guys are here; to talk you through your problems, to get involved with your illness, and to teach you that this is not the end of the road for you. This is why i really appreciate what these guys do.

So please dig deep and donate whatever you can, no matter whether big or small, as the saying goes 'every little helps'.

About the charity

AIDS is the most devastating modern-day disease. By the end of the 20th century, 50 years worth of public health gains were annihilated by AIDS, which continues to destroy lives. Our vision today is to create an AIDS free future through science, support, and most of all, compassion. You can help.
