The
Firs Challengers took on the ultimate Challenge for charity in November
2006. With the aim of raising £12,000 for Compton Hospice
six ordinary people trekked 100 km across the Sahara Desert. This
started a chain of events that was without doubt beyond their hopes
and expectations. With a PR pack in hand the trekkers got more and
more sponsors from good old Joe Public to businesses in and around
Wolverhampton, and they all dug deep. By the time they had returned
to a rally of cheers the main event, supported by lead up events,
raised a massive £35,000. |
