Hi Folks!

Thanks for visiting my page, I really appreciate any support I can get for this expedition – it’s going to be tricky! What I really want to do is get the full 83 miles done as quick as I can, but with camping equipment, food and a dog in tow I don’t know how fast this will actually be!

All the proceeds from this expedition will be going to Animal Helpline for the Wansford shelter with a view to be spent on a new kennel. I have also pre-invested in an agility set which the shelter will be able to use at their disposal to keep the dogs (and volunteers) entertained and unleash their inner athlete!

So far I have managed to raise £320.50 just from a sponsorship form, ideally I would like to hit £500 (my initial target of £1,000 might have been a touch ambitious!). Any donation you can afford would help me to reach my target and get the very best for these lovely pups!

I have yet to choose a dog to come with me on the walk, I will need to choose carefully. A dog with oodles of energy, good map-reading skills and long legs (apparently some bits can be swampy!) and the ability to lift the mood when I am feeling like it will never end would be advantageous … failing this a walking and camping companion will do just fine!

Thanks again in advance of your support, I am really looking forward to it now!
