Amber’s Golden Aruba Quiz

Last year Amber was selected as a participant of a GOLD (Guiding Overseas Linked with Development) trip to Aruba in the Summer of 2020. GOLD empowers young women to work in partnership with other guide associations around the world to improve our skills, experience new cultures and make a long-term impact. Due to the worldwide Coronavirus pandemic the trip has been postponed until 2021, potentially with increased costs, so she needs to continue fund-raising. You can help by completing her quiz, 70 questions all with a GOLDen link.

The entry fee is just £2.00, with prizes of £25 and £10 for first and second. To enter pay via https://www.paypal.me/AmberClaughton/2
