Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I discovered the London to Brighton trek late last year and decided agreed that it was just the challenge I needed for 2017. After signing up and choosing the fantastic Battersea Dog's and Cat's Home as my charity I set about creating my page on Just Giving to collect donations. That's where I find myself today, not previously having done any fundraising for a charity but determined to help out.

I aim to start early and carry through to the end in one near continuous walk of 100km with only brief breaks at the stop points. There is a plan for training which involves long weekend walks (30km to 50km) and this page will be plastered everywhere I can plaster it. My progress will be marked in updates on this page and I will be doing a few 5km and 10km runs leading up to the main event (all of this will marked in the updates).

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
