All systems go!

Today has been a busy busy day for us! We have had an interview and photos taken with Ed Gent from the Leatherhead Advertiser and he says we will be in next week's issue- so keep an eye out for us in there!

Then, we ordered a massive take away and planned our route! We have finally set a departure date- August 4th 2012. We are set on completing the walk in 10 days and are even begining to find places to stay along the way!

We made our JustGiving page and a man we have been asking for fundraising tips- http://twitter.com/#!/DGilvarry was kind enough to sponsor us, so including the money we have already recieved, we are 1% to our final goal! Only 99% to go! But it was very nice to see the goal begin to be completed. Dom Gilvarry is also doing amazing things, raising money for Team Ella.

A group of like minded people who raise awareness of stillbirth and support childrens charities in memory of Ella Gilvarry born sleeping 12.11.2010 http://www.teamella.co.uk

Very exciting stuff happening so keep sponsoring us and we will be well on our way to exceeding our targets!

Emily & the Walking Waitresses.
