And thanks to Tom Mutton and his Dad, who ran the Nottingham Marathon and is still raising money at www.justgiving.com/tommutton/
Colwall Rotary Club raised £920 by shaking buckets outside a supermarket. Their secretary said 'Our Club supported a major donation last year because we know that you make it go a long way – many kids are helped by each £ we give.'
Britsh Isles Challenge
Stuart Walker set himself an amazing challenge to raiise funds for Water for Kids. In June and July 2009 Stuart took on the British Isles Challenge to travel between the most southerly and northerly points in the UK by human power alone, something has not been done before. This means from the Scilly Isles to the north of Scotland by sea kayaking, running, swimming, mountain biking, cycling, and rowing. Before he set off he said 'I look forward to helping Water for Kids as it is clear how hard the charity works, and how important it is that their work can continue and help many more people.'
He is now busy collecting the money for three charities, one of which is Water for Kids. Well done Stuart, what an achievement.
If you would like to sponsor Stuart, it's not too late, www.justgiving.com/britishisleschallenge_water or to read his blog www.britishisleschallenge.co.uk/.
