Story
Archie, 11, and Rosie, 8, are continuing to raise funds in memory of their much loved Grandad, Steve Pratt, who died on 10th February 2021 after two years battling lung cancer. They have already raised £2,349, so much more than the £650 original target, thanks to astonishing support from friends, family and well wishers.
Their challenge is to climb the coast path to the 148 metre summit of Stonebarrow Hill on the Jurassic Coast 65 times, once for each year of Grandad Steve's life. They have only 23 weeks to achieve this, before the deadline of 28 September 2021, which would have been his 66th birthday.
The two charities that they have chosen to support are Weldmar Hospicecare, who are a Dorset based charity which supported the whole family when we needed them most, and Charmouth Football Club, of which Grandad Steve was Chairman, running it with his son Kevin for the last 5 years and supporting it for at least 30 years.

3 years agoWalk 65. So many of you joined us for our final walk on Saturday 25th September - it was amazing! At that point the fundraising had reached £3080, by the end of the day it was £3725, and as I write the total stands at £3960 🥳 ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you all for your support throughout our challenge. It's been an incredible journey, we absolutely loved our surprise at the top of Stonebarrow Hill on the last walk and we are overwhelmed by your generosity. Love Archie & Rosie ❤️❤️❤️ As requested, the donations page will remain open for the next few weeks.
