Paula and Russell would love to hear from you, please . If you send us anything of interest to visitors of this site we will add it to the Daily Briefing.
Wainwright Fell ChallengeI 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. Julia Bradbury, presenter of the BBC Wainwright's Walks says "Come on lovers of the Lake District...choose your favourite and help to provide something we take for granted in this country - safe, clean water for people in Africa and Asia who aren't as fortunate as we are. Castle Cragg is mine - small but perfectly formed. Which one will you bag...?" Bag your favourite fell now - once they're gone they're gone! |
