Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
A few of my close friends are ex-servicemen, some of whom suffer from mental illness as a result of their service. The help that Combat Stress would be able to give them is very important, It may not stop the nightmares, but it would make their day to day lives much easyer.
From early May 2012 I will be walking over 4000 miles along 18 National Trails in order to raise money fo Combat Stress. It would be great if I could raise £1 per mile, but I would settle for 50p.
- Cleveland Way, 177 km (110 miles) round the edge of the North York Moors National Park
- Cotswold Way, 163 km (101 miles)
- Glyndŵr's Way, 217 km (135 miles)
- Hadrian's Wall Path, 135 km (84 miles)
- North Downs Way, 246 km (153 miles)

Update, I now have a blog about my preparation for these challenges. http://sydscombatstresschallenge.blogspot.com/
Just to let everyone know, I've decided to postpone the first trip until May 2012, hopefully I can raise at least £270 by then, Thanks Again
I've had to postpone the first event again, My Open University study is more intense than I thought it would be, so I'm going to do the pennine way once I've finnished the first module. Honestly, I dont know how these young kids party all the time and still manage to study.
