On Sunday 8 July an anticipated 600 children and adults will be walking a 15 mile route in Barnet to raise funds to support Shishukunj.
Preena Gosai, one of the organisers said “I have been a member of Shishukunj for 32 years and have learnt a lot of valuable skills. We wanted to organise this Charity Walk so that we can raise funds to keep the organisation growing and flourishing for many years to come”
Shishukunj London is a UK registered charity that has been working in London for over 40 years and is run almost exclusively by volunteers, aimed at developing the children of today, into society's leaders of tomorrow. They support children to develop good morals, values and leadership skills, which will enable them to flourish into well-rounded and balanced individuals, able to tackle life's challenges.
Shishukunj International Projects (part of Shishukunj London) objective is to relieve poverty, distress and sickness amongst children all over the world.
Paren Shah, who is also part of the organising team said “I have dedicated many worthwhile hours to this project because Shishukunj is more than a UK based charity developing children into the leaders of tomorrow, they also do amazing work in deprived parts of India and Africa helping children obtain an education.
There are still places available to participate in the Walk and anyone wishing to take part should register at www.shishukunj.org.uk
