Story

Thanks for visiting my Soreen team fundraising page. On 6th June 2015 I will be leading a team of 4 in the Samworth Brothers Charity Challenge, held in the area of Lake Vrynwy & the Berwyn mountains. The Challenge is an exhilarating event involving running, cycling, canoeing & an obstacle course & as a team we have to navigate the ‘Tough’ course collecting points & finishing within the allocated timeframe.

I have never competed in this type of event before & I am going to have to train extremely hard to prepare for the Challenge! For more info about the Challenge itself please visit: http://www.samworthbrotherschallenge.co.uk/About

I am supporting a fantastic cause – Ronald McDonald House Charities. RMHC provides free accommodation at specialist children's hospitals across the UK, enabling families to stay close to their child & maintain a degree of normal family life during treatment. As a family we have first hand experience of what the charity does as my parents had to stay at the Ronald McDonald House at Alder Hey whilst my younger sister was treated in the hospital. Without their support, there would have been even more pressure on my parents during what was a very difficult time.

My fundraising target is on the right & I would love to smash it so any contributions would be gratefully received. Thanks for taking the time to visit my page.
