Not so unusual, you may think, charity walks are pretty popular, however, this one is being done in the nude! Mark Stephenson and Fiona Lincoln are braving the chilly British weather to raise awareness of Clothes For A Cause appeal. The appeal is being run in conjunction with Oxfam and the Ordnance Survey Outdoors Show taking place in Birmingham from 27th-29th March at the NEC.

The shows organisers are encouraging visitors to bring their old walking gear and equipment to be donated to Oxfam and re-used in foreign aid projects. The couple started their hike on Sunday with only their hiking boots, socks and a rucksack each and hope to get to Birmingham by the time the show starts on Friday.

If you are attending the show, be sure to do your bit and donate any old walking boots and equipment. If you are interesting in buying recycled goods you can buy second hand items online from the Oxfam shop.
