Star Trekk

avatarPosted on 16th April 2018 by Mark WildApril 16, 2018

It’s been a while, actually it’s been ions, but now I am back and here to tell you of a planned walk to come.

This May I shall be taking part in the annual Star Trekk walk. No, this is nothing to do with the Star-ship Enterprise, Captains Kirk or Picard! This is an 8.5 miles sponsored night walk around Southport raising money for Queenscourt Hospice. Now in its twelfth year, Star Trekk is the flagship event in Queenscourt’s fundraising calendar. I’m really looking forward to this event and would gratefully appreciate any and all donations to this worthy cause.

To donate please visit my page at https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/MarkWild2
