Change of team name in Memory of Mel Schaverien

post image

Message from team member Alan Schaverien. Mel was a great supporter of Oxfam Trailwalker. She was the team leader of the Platinum "Fab, Fit & Forty" team in 2005 with Lisa, Amanda,and Jennifer. Mel supported Alan in three trailwalkers, and was a volunteer also. Mel passed away on 27th July after a courageous fight against breast cancer. She wanted me to participate in this event – she was a supporter to the last. My teammates Kathleen, Lindsay & Phil allowed me to change the team name to "Mel's Movers" in her honour.

Closing in on the big event!!

post image

now only 4 weeks to go until the big event! The team has been training hard out on the trail, and training our legs for the demands of the early stage of the course. We've also had some personnel changes due to injury. Our team stalwart Michael Puckridge (aka Pucks) has unfortunately had to withdraw with a bad calf injury. Rookie Lindsay has stepped up to the challenge & has joined the team & is pumped at doing her first Oxfam. Here's Lindsay (left) and Kathleen (right) arriving at Apple Tree bay after completing sections 2 and 3.
