With only 4 weeks to go until the team leave for Vietnam, 2 things are uppermost in our minds…..training and fundraising. Most of the team have managed to raise the total amount needed, £2,500 which is no mean feat, so well done to them. The others are well on their way and we have seen some great imagination shown during the last few months.
Training for the 3 day hike up mount Fansipan, is well underway and with an 8 hour hike on day 2, we will all need to be at our fittest.
We have now received official confirmation of the projects we will be volunteering at.
On October 17th we will be at Hoa Quy Medical Centre near Danang. This trip is sponsoring a whole days treatment and we expect to see over 150 people throughout the day.
On October 18th we will be visiting a children’s home and undertaking any volunteering work they have for us, so it may be on with the overalls and picking up paintbrushes or spades!
October 19th will see us out in the field again, this time at Hoa Bac medical centre, and will again be looking to treat 150 people.
The visits will cost approximately $400 each and so if you can make a contribution towards the cost of the drugs and transport, it will make a huge difference to almost 500 people in these poor areas.
