I have recently finished a degree in Psychology at Liverpool University and am spending the summer fundraising, learning guitar and other holiday-related activities :-) http://www.myactionaid.org.uk/garethej http://www.myactionaid.org.uk/gbannonryder Im a 42 year old mother of two gorgeous girls, and I work full time as a Mental Health Nurse in Primary Care. I fancied a bit of a challenge and to be able to combine this fantastic trip with raising money for an amazing charity such as Actionaid is an opportunity I couldnt miss. Those of you who know me know what an unfit, lazy lump I am therefore the amusement at the thought of me treking through the Indian Himalaya's should cause you to dig deep if nothing else! So fundraising ahoy (not to mention getting fit) and please give whatever you can, it can all make a real difference. Thank you so much!!!! http://www.myactionaid.org.uk/maisie Hi, for all of those of you out there who know me and are not too surprised by deciding to take this fantastic opportunity to not only help action aid but to see the wonderful countryside, villages, mountains, temples of India in on a trek in November. Yes I am not the most energictic person and yes I will be staying in a tent something I haven't come close to for over 25 years since leaving the girl guides! Will I cope I am sure I will with your support, plasters and a few glasses of red wine! I need to raise £3,000 so every penny counts! Please click on right to donate.
