BIG WALK FOR PALESTINE

Anybody who knows anything about me will know how much I dislike physical activity, specifically walking. But, you will also know how much LOVE I have for Palestine . This walk is for a super important cause, an issue so close to my heart.

I am doing this sponsored walk with the aim of fundraising to pay for urgent humanitarian relief for Palestinians, especially those innocent civilians in Gaza suffering from the vicious Israeli onslaught. Over 11,000 people have been killed already, almost half of them children and the relentless daily bombing of innocent civilians continues. People are starving and living on the streets sleeping on cardboard. Hospitals, schools, churches, mosques and other places of supposed sanctuary have been bombed. The Sheffield Palestine Cultural Exchange have direct links to teams working on the ground to support as many people as they can with food parcels and essential items.

All funding will go via Sheffield Palestine Cultural Exchange to The Gaza Emergency Relief Fund. Please see sheffieldpsc.org.uk/ for more information. Here is a link to a report about the use of funds compiled on 4 Nov 2023 bit.ly/Gaza-ER-report.

As part of this we are organising a city wide SPONSORED walk on Saturday 2 December 10.30am-12pm with sponsored groups walking from many locations, fundraising as they go and meeting in the city centre.

You don’t have to wait for the day you can DONATE now.
