E4 Long Distance Walk 2011

Fundraiser: 
William J Hayes

My page: http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/e4longdistancewalk

Having worked non-stop for over thirty years I have now decided to do something completely different. I'm going to walk from Tarifa, the most southerly point in Spain, to Budapest. I'm following the route of the E4 European Long Distance Walk and I think I might be the first person to do it.

As well as an enjoyable personal adventure it would be great if I could raise money for the Britain Nepal Medical Trust.

The Britain Nepal Medical Trust started in Nepal in 1966 when a team of British nurses and doctors approached the Nepalese government with an offer to help. It was established as a UK registered charity a year later. Initially concentrating on the control of tuberculosis (over 1 million BCG vaccinations provided by 1976) it has developed a broader based capacity building programme for improved health, transforming itself from a British to a Nepalese managed operation in the process
