“The trip was wonderfully organised and totally exceeded all my expectations –­ well done!!!”

“Totally amazing! Wonderful people, a fantastic country and being part of something that makes a huge difference to a lot of people by helping to fund vital research”
Debra Stapleton, River Nile Bike Ride 2006

“I never thought I could do something this physically demanding. I’m really pleased! Having Weight Watchers and the BHF as a common purpose for being there was a great motivator and provided an instant link for everyone”.
Mandy Groom, Weight Watchers Sorrento Peninsula and Amalfi Coast Trek for the BHF 2006

“Amazing! Such a multi-sensory experience which met and exceeded all my expectations! The physical and fundraising achievements as well as making friends with a great group of people made this the experience of a lifetime which I will never forget! I’ve been on a high since I came back!”
Sam Scott, River Nile Bike Ride 2006

“One of the most positive experiences of my life.  I have wonderful new friends with whom I have shared exhaustion, elation, real friendship and sense of caring, encouragement and fun.  I wouldn’t change a single thing.”
Gill Williamson, Iceland’s Natural Wonders Trek 2006

“From the day I saw the flyer at Weight Watchers and said to my friend I am going to do that challenge and meet my goal, my whole life changed! I have become more positive about my weight and body image and become healthier and fitter. I have made some fantastic friends, raised money for the BHF - I am so glad I took on the challenge!”
Vicki Willis, Weight Watchers Southern Alps Trek for the BHF 2006
