Hope Challenge 2013: The whathouse.co.uk team blog
Our preparations for the Hope Challenge started in earnest this weekend. Well, actually, they started in Surrey as we undertook the first of our training walks prior to the 20km (13 mile) trek we'll face in July.
Whathouse.co.uk to co-sponsor the Hope Challenge 2013
Whathouse.co.uk is teaming up with its sister publication Show House as media sponsors of the Hope Challenge 2013, a charity event taking place in July to raise money for Habitat for Humanity, which builds or renovates property for the poorest people in the UK and many countries overseas.
Since its inception in 1976, the charity has helped over 3million people by building, renovating and repairing homes. The event will raise enough funds to house dozens more families in need of basic habitable and safe homes, something that most of us can take for granted.
