Inspired by the challenges faced every day by people with disabilities Past President Andrew has set himself the enormous challenge of walking for 27 hours.
The purpose of the challenge is to not only to raise money to send a disabled person to the Calvert trust but also to raise awareness of all the good work both Rotary & the Calvert Trust Do every day.
Andrew says "I have experienced first had the life changing work of the Calvert Trust where they not only inspire people with disabilities but give them a 'can do' attitude and a new outlook on life. It is a truly amazing experience to look down over a 100ft cliff edge and see a young man out of his wheelchair smiling back up at you hanging only by a rope."
