Fife group leaves for trek 2

As members of trek 2 prepare to leave a frosty Scotland on Monday morning, the blogger has received material from Who Cares Scotland’s Steve Griffin about fund-raising activities undertaken by the Fife team.

Fife Group: Caleb Abercrombie, Jordan Todd, Niall Grattan, Heather Hattan and Steve Griffin

Steve explained that one popular event was a pamper night organised by Heather Hattan, one of the trek team, with papmper skills provided by Lesley Houghton, a respite care manager in Fife.

We felt that as showers and the like may be few and far between when we are in Nepal we’d best make the most of what we’ve got at the moment and have spa baths, foot spas, foot massages and facemasks before setting off on this epic journey.

Steve also told the blogger about the generosity of Niall’s and Jordan’s friends also living in residential care in Fife who collected and donated pocket money to support the trek fund. Steve said:

What a wonderful generous act by these youngsters!
