Sally’s charity trek

Sally Sinclair-Webb, a recent recruit to the club, is going trekking in Jordan in April to raise money for a hospice which cares for terminally ill cancer patients.

She is aiming to raise £1,950 for the Marie Curie Hospice in Hampstead with £1,500 of the sum to be raised by the beginning of February.

"’The trek is described as tough and exhilarating," says Sally, "and suitable for anyone with a bit of grit, determination and willingness to work as part of a team. It takes place over the long weekend of April 22-26.

"There are three full days of trekking of approximately 16km per day when the temperature may reach 35C and we start at the ancient red rose city of Petra. Some sections of the trail are rocky and uneven while others are steep with some scrambling along sandstone and limestone escarpments."
