Hi Everybody. 

I have been lucky enough to be given the opportunity to go to Kididima in Kenya in October 2014. I will be going with a group of 26 Stone Guides and for the two weeks we are there we are going to be

• Building a Toilet Block
• Building a Health Centre
• Designing a Mural for a Community Centre

I need to raise a minimum of £1200 to pay to get myself there and my accommodation once I am there. Once I have reached that target all further donations will help pay for all of the above projects which will really benefit the people living in Kididima Village.

I thought it would be a really good idea to use a Blog to keep you all updated with everything I am doing to raise money and how I am doing in reaching my targets. I will also be using it to ask you to help in reaching my target (you knew it was coming!!)

The ideas we have in the pipeline so far are :-

• An Athletic Summer!! - Over the summer I am looking to complete a number of sporting achievements which I am hoping you will sponsor me for. At the moment these include 
• A 3km Swim - this is on Monday 22nd April
• Complete the Staffordshire Way - 148km route through Staffordshire - not sure whether I am cycling or walking this yet!!
• Complete a 5km Run (Dads just told me about that one!!)
• Working in My Mums Office (for 50p an hour knowing my Mum!)
• Selling Friendship Bracelets
• Car Boot Sales
• Arranging a Charity Meal (expect an invite!!)
• Donating my pocket money when I am doing housework
• Doing jobs for friends and family
• Delivering leaflets
• Plant Sales

This is just some of the ideas so far and I want to keep you all updated with photos and comments and all developments relating to the trip to Kenya

There will be a 'My Donate' website set up over the next couple of weeks and I will let you all know the details as soon as I can as to how you can help me reach my target. 

Hopefully you will find it entertaining and I will let you know as soon as I have anymore updates.
