On the road again

Last updated: 18 November 2008

Imagine hitching a ride across the globe for charity. Swansea students - and some non students - are gearing up for the 2009 version of the event.

Students are getting ready to go all the way for charity as they prepare to spend their Easter break hitch-hiking from Swansea to Tangiers in Morocco to raise money for the education and development charity Link Community Development.

There is a tracking system in place, where the hitchers have to text in before 4pm daily. If they don't do so, they will ring them to check their ok. Their texts then appear on a website, so friends and family can see where the hitchers are.
