Back in Business!

I had a bit of a break from fundraising over the Summer but still got up to lots of adventurous stuff including:

  • I got into a camp for the top 24 orienteers in the UK in the 13-14 age group and spent a week training in the highlands of Scotland with a broken arm. It was a brilliant experience  as I got to experience some very tricky terrain and I got to know lots of different orienteers of my age.


  • Just after my cast came off, I spent two weeks camping in France where I started working on getting the strength back in my arm culminating in being able to paddle a fair bit of the way in a two-man canoe in a 10km stretch of river with light rapids.
