I have set myself a personal challenge to Walk the full length of Hadrian's Wall (84) miles in 5 days, carrying full camping equipment. As part of this challenge, I intend to raise money for Naomi House Childrens Hospice in Winchester. The walk will take place from 23rd May 2011 to 27th May 2011. By the time of the walk I will be 62 years of age which in itself creates a huge challenge. I hope you will show your support by making a donation to Naomi House.

Wessex Children’s Hospice Trust, known as Naomi House, provides support to children and young people with life limiting conditions from across central southern England.  The charity offers one-to-one palliative care that includes respite stays, terminal and bereavement care. This support is available 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year.

The services the Trust provides are available to families from two purpose built hospices, Naomi House and jacksplace, situated just north of Winchester in Hampshire.  In addition the community service supports families who need our help during emergency situations.

It costs around £5 million a year to provide these services to the children, young people and families.  With less than 15% of income coming from Government and other statutory bodies, the Trust relies on the generosity of people in the community to continue its work. Their support enables the charity to provide these crucial care services, free of charge, to children and their families.
