Day One on the Wall
29th April 2019
After around 24 hours of travelling, dealing with the time difference between the UK and China, and not too great a night's sleep - it's time to crack on!
The team of 49 trekkers have arrived safely in Beijing for the start of their journey!

The first day hasn't really involved any trekking though...
It's been more about acclimatising and getting briefings on what to expect over the next week.

Trek 'leader', Spire FM's Martin Starke has been speaking to Chris Wright and Henrietta Creasey from China:


Of course we're all doing this for the Stars Appeal at Salisbury District Hospital.
You can donate on the charity's online fundraising page - just put 'TREK' in the messages box.
