Students planning Morocco trek for charity

Apr 14 2008 Submitted by Jane Johns

JANE Johns and Taale Schroeder are second year students at the National Institute of Conductive Education who have decided to start their third and final year with style, by entertaining the crazy notion that they are capable of trekking around Morocco!

They will be trekking to the summit of Mt Toubkal (4,167m!) North Africa's highest peak, and will spend three days out of the five trekking across Morocco (as we said - crazy!) This will be an experience of a lifetime, and they need to raise £3000 to make this happen

They are undertaking this challenge to raise money and awareness for the Foundation for Conductive Education. This is an incredible national charity that teaches children and adults with physical disabilities such as Cerebral Palsy, Parkinson's, Multiple Sclerosis, Stroke and Head Injury, how to master the every day movements - sitting, standing, talking and walking - things we take for granted.
