Story

UPDATE.....I've arrived in Rome! I left London on the 9th May and arrived here on Friday 15th August. It's been an amazingly wonderful experience. Too much to tell here! If you would like to know more please contact me by email, address is either here, or on my team page....

Thank you for your donations.

Update......Tuesday 22nd July. Ive now walked 57 days and am having 3 'days off' in Lucca. Stevie Wonder was performing here on Sunday night and I managed to meet him and talked to him about the walk from London to Rome and the charities I am raising funds for and their connection with Music and Health. I start walking again on the 24th and hope to be there in the second week of August.

Over the last four years I've been walking different pilgrimage routes. I've been doing this for many different reasons, but I increasingly wanted these walks to have a benefit beyond my own personal sense of satisfaction. I would now like to raise funds for the Nordoff Robbins Charity for their work in encouraging the use of Music Therapy for helping anyone with a wide range of illnesses. 

Walking has become a passion, as has music, over these last years, and, with a great interest in health issues, the idea of raising funds for Music and Health is an obvious choice.

I will try and update this page as I progress towards Rome. Wish me luck, and donate generously!
