2 siblings. 2 sports. 2 marathons. 1 goal.

We grew up in Malawi and it remains a very special place to us both. Our mum Sue lives there and runs Joshua Orhpan and Community Care who supporting community-driven sustainable projects in Malawi.

We spent much of our time growing up in Malawi enjoying our favourite sports, swimming and horse riding, both of which we have carried on into adulthood. To raise money for our beloved second home and a cause closed to our family we are completing two marathons during May, Adrian in the water and Danielle on horseback!

Cyclone Freddy wreaked havoc across Malawi and has hit the areas and community centres hard. The death and damage is devastating. We are fundraising to help provide the aid needed to get these communities back on their feet again.

The money raised so far has helped to keep delivering supplies to the communities delivering tarpaulins, maize, soya, waterguard, tap buckets and soap to deal with the immediate essentials of shelter, food, water and sanitation.

However work needs to continue to tackle the long term effects of Cyclone Freddy, including rebuilding and supporting communities to grow alternative crops to make up for the damage caused and lost harvest. These communities are doing all they can to help themselves but they are facing enormous challenges not least the escalating Cholera outbreak that was already sweeping the country.

All and any donations will make a huge difference and will be greatly appreciated by us, our awesome mum and the people of Malawi, the warm heart of Africa. Zikomo!
