Trek Spain and make a difference in 2010

7 January 2010

If your New Year's resolutions include travelling, charity work and getting fit, Trek Spain could be the answer to all your resolutions in 2010.

All sponsorship raised by this trek will fund cutting edge research to find better treatments and a cure for Parkinson's.

Paul Jackson-Clark, Director of Fundraising

Join our team of trekkers on this exciting physical challenge, from 10 to 14 June 2010, and raise vital funds to help people affected by Parkinson's.

Breathtaking scenery

You'll trek through the stunning Sierra Nevada and feast your eyes on breathtaking mountain scenery as you make your way towards the charming village of Mairena.

The trek offers team members the choice of covering either 30km or 44km over the 5 day visit.

Every step will make a difference

Trek Spain 2008 team memberPaul Jackson-Clark, our Director of Fundraising, comments:

"Trek Spain is a challenge where every step will make a difference.

"We are totally dependent on voluntary donations and all sponsorship raised by this trek will fund cutting edge research to find better treatments and a cure for Parkinson's.

"Trek Spain raised over £70,000 in 2008 and we want to smash that target in 2010."

Albert Weir, a Trek Spain 2008 team member, said:

"I returned home emotional, inspired but above all more positive to continue to raise funds for such a worthwhile cause."
