Clegg’s Arctic Challenge

Nick Clegg’s Arctic challenge – he’s not monkey hunting, he’s trekking for charity:

As some of you might know, I’m participating in the “Westminster Challenge” next February: five MPs trekking miles and miles through the Arctic cold and dark during their recess to raise money for some excellent charities. Incredible, but true. You can find out more about the challenge and the charities – including the local Sheffield charity which I have chosen in addition to the three national charities – via the weblink below.

I’d be hugely grateful for any sponsorship you could give me for this gruelling experience: any donation, however large or small, would be a great boost to this novel experiment in bringing MPs and good causes together. Just follow the easy steps on the Justgiving website.

All best wishes

Nick Clegg

Nick also has a page about this on his own website. Certain of our readers will appreciate the photos of him in his running shorts.

We here at Lib Dem Voice wish him every success.
