English Lake District Daily Briefing for Monday 1st December 2008

Updated on Sunday at 6.00pm

 

Wainwright Fell Challenge

I am looking for 214 people to sponsor a fell by donating £15 to raise a total sum of £3210 for WaterAid. Each sponsored fell will provide one person in Africa or Asia with a lasting supply of safe, clean water, sanitation and hygiene education.

In return I will add your name and short message to the Hall-of-Fame. The Hall of Fame is an ideal way to show your love of the Lake District or remember a loved one.

Bag your favourite fell now, once they're gone they're gone!
