My name is Sophie and I am the founder of a walking group in Bristol for black/Women of colour over 18 years of age - we are called Bristol Steppin Sistas Bristol Steppin Sistas

My goal is to support as many organisations in the community as possible. I have chosen Reparations Bristol Youth Project because, I can see the really good work they are doing for Young People, and it would be a pleasure for me to try and raise some money to help with the outstanding projects that they are trying to make big efforts to put together.

The way I would like to contribute to this amazing organisation, is to take up a solo walking challenge - 100 miles from Bristol to Reading along the Kennet and Avon canal in May 2023. As a qualified walk leader, I understand the ups and downs of long distance walking, but saying that, I also have a passion and choose to solo walk under most circumstances .

My aim is to walk the whole 100 miles over a period of 5 days, stopping overnight at B&Bs along the way.

Please can you help me achieve this, the organisation 'Reparations Bristol Youth Project ' means so much to our Young People
