Donations cannot currently be made to this page
We're Hertfordshire’s leading carer charity, established in 1995, working to ensure young & adult carers can have a life of their own outside of caring, are recognised, valued & empowered, and get vital information, support & training. We’d love to help more carers and with your help we can!

Story

<div> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Welcome to my JustGiving page for&nbsp;Carers&nbsp;in Hertfordshire&nbsp;- now updated, with me having completed the walk and returned from Scotland - remarkably with no blisters.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">I can confirm that Milngavie to Fort William&nbsp;is achievable 'comfortably'&nbsp;when spread over 7 days' walking. </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">It's not until one is returning from Fort William by train (it takes almost 4 hours to Glasgow Queen Street) that it sinks in what&nbsp;a long way&nbsp;it really is! </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Incidentally, it is a beautiful train ride as well.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Anyway, to those of you who have waited until I could demonstrate that the West Highland Way could be tamed....I offer my encouragement&nbsp;to donate now!!</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">To those of you that have already donated - a huge THANK YOU - I have been really touched by everyone's generosity.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">If you haven't already done so, please visit the&nbsp;Carers in Hertfordshire&nbsp;website&nbsp;from the link on this page and also link&nbsp;to my&nbsp;Brain Research Trust&nbsp;JustGiving&nbsp;page&nbsp;from my recent email to you.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">I hope that you visit both charities' JustGiving pages.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">As promised, I have uploaded a bunch of photos taken over the past week and a bit. I hope you get&nbsp;some of the flavour of the trip. It was no picnic but it was a&nbsp;very special experience in a&nbsp;dramatic landscape that changed character virtually within&nbsp;every hour of walking - and&nbsp;the entire week spent&nbsp;in great company too!</span></p> </div>
