Campaign Story
This summer I am going to be volunteering for 5 weeks in Fiji, working alongside local people to make a difference in some of the poorest communities. During this time I shall help to build local facilities, work within schools teaching English, establish kindergartens, organise youth clubs and encourage the uptake of sport.
As I prepare for this challenge I am looking to raise funds, through sponsorship, to cover the cost of vital building materials, equipment and resources for communities and schools, which will ensure the project makes a sustainable difference.
In April (weather permitting) my dad and I are attempting to break a World Speed Record in a microlight. This will be done over a closed circuit of 50km. The present record is 102.83 mph...no pressure there then! (You can see an image of the actual QuikR microlight we will be using in the gallery.)
I am also training to complete the Edinburgh Half Marathon on Sunday 14th April. Quite a feat for someone not exactly known for long distance running!
I'd really appreciate any donations you can make; it's going to a great cause!
Many thanks,
Evie

Half Marathon - DONE
Update posted by Evie Douglas at 10:10 amJust thought I'd give you a quick update on challenge progress! Yesterday I successfully completed the Edinburgh Rock 'N' Roll Half Marathon! It was extremely tough, particularly as I've been out of training for the past few weeks due to shin splints, but I'm chuffed to have made it. . . . .
