Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've been raising money to support the Young Archaeologists' Club.   Run by the educational charity the Council for British Archaeology, YAC is the only UK-wide organistion that helps young people to access archaeology.   The Club's local Branches provide exciting hands-on activities for children from all backgrounds and of all abilities, helping them to follow their archaeological dreams.   I've been raising money to Dig Deep for YAC!  http://www.yac-uk.org/yaccampaign

The YAC Roman Walk team of eight newly-recruited legionaries marched six circuits of York town walls on 1 February; that's 15 miles of hard walking and we just finished the last lap ahead of the man with keys shutting down the gates and bars as the sun started to set.   You can see a great set of photos and even some video here: http://www.yac-uk.org/yaccampaign/events/romans

THANK YOU very much to everyone who kindly made donations.   Along with some offline sponsorship my total is heading towards £400!   The team is really pleased to have passed £2000.   If you haven't made a donation yet and would like to, this page will be active for three months.   Take a look at the photos!
