do.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=&#8221;759&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]A keen hiker, new Soroptomist Helen took on the feat to mark her 60th Birthday celebrations and to push herself physically and mentally, in aid of a cause which is very close to her heart. \u00a0The trek in late October 2017 across the world third largest, and hottest desert, \u00a0is in remembrance of her late father and of a close friend whose last days were spent in the care of St Luke\u2019s Hospice so it\u2019s a very personal challenge for her. \u00a0The trek is set to see Helen and fellow fundraisers battle scorching temperatures in the day which plummet to freezing cold nights, scale sand dunes and sleep under the stars in their bid to raise money for the cause.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=&#8221;760&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;
