The Dynamic Duo are planning a girls-only, fun-filled and exhilarating guided walk in the Mournes on 23 May 2009 to raise funds for a small unofficial charity.
The money will help equip a local maternity unit with small essential equipment, the first being an underwater sonicaid, and also start providing underprivileged mums with basic items for their newborns and themselves.
Itinerary:
10:00 Coffee and cakes (provided by us)
11:00 Hike
13:00 Lunch up the mountains (provided & carried by us!)
NB aiming to return to car park 16:00 , but depends on how leisurely we decide to be!
A fabulous, sociable trip to the Majestic Mournes - our own outdoor playground, right on our doorstep!
