Can anyone help me gain company sponsorship for charity walk?


Ex Scotland, now in New Zealand. 66 yrs old. Seek sponsors to enable me to do charity walk around Britain. Over 4000 kms – 5 months. In aid of Brit. Heart Foundation.
I had quad. heart bypass 1977 – wish to make contribution. On superannuation. Have airfare only. Need about 14000 pounds.
Possible English friend, also quad. bypass, will walk with me.
I'm writing book on this, and proceeds from it, if any, to go to N Z Heart Foundation. Email tkr0013@iconz.co.nz if you want a pdf copy of draft of book so far. It's a bit humourous (I hope) and has maps of planned route and tentative stop places.
Anyone wanting to walk part or all with me most welcome, more so if you can help raise funds.
David.

Sounds like you need to contact the local media and get them involved, they might even sponsor you, at your age that is incredible!!!

    If you think you have a book to sell why not contact some publishers? With a publisher behind you, they will be able to help you get publicity, and the more publicity you have the more companies will want to help and donate.
