I am walking the entirety of the West Highland Way (100 miles) to raise much-needed money for both the Highlands Support Refugees and Shelter Scotland.

Homelessness and displacement - in Scotland and abroad - are pressing humanitarian issues I believe we must collectively tackle (particularly in the face of slow-moving and/or callous governments).

The hike is a pretty daunting prospect: it's four times longer than anything I've ever done before, there are lots of hills, and there will be a heavy pack on my back. Please let my blisters, sore muscles, and exhaustion be for an excellent cause.
