It is now several weeks since the walk came to its conclusion. It has left some wonderful memories and we have a great sense of achievement. I am incredibly grateful to all those who helped and supported us. So far the money raised is as follows:
A ten thousand pound legacy was given and is tied into providing equipment for The Bishop's School such as science equipment. This money has already been sent and received. We are going to be given accountability about how precisely this money is being used.
A twenty thousand pound gift has also been given and is waiting to be sent.
So far five thousand and five hundred pounds has been received from those who have sponsored the walk. Money is still being received and should amount to at least six thousand.
There is the possibility of a bucket collection at Norwich City FC next season.
June and I are being sent by our Church to Uganda in May in order to ensure that the money raised goes to where it is designed to go. This will give us a chance to meet the staff and governors of the Bishop's School, take photographs and generally get the work moving. When we return with the team in August we hope to report good progress.
