FUNDRAISING
March 2021, when Alba was just 6, she took on her first fundraiser! Then throughout 2021 she went on to complete 5 more before the end of the year. By the end of 2022 Alba had completed 10 fundraisers!
Now it's 2023 and she's taking on the rest of the England Coast Path supporting Mind.
The fundraising is ALL Alba! I (her mum) walk with her, update her social accounts & website and help in many ways but she researches the charities, she picks the step or mile goal and the fundraising target.
