Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I last did this walk 6 years ago when I was younger and fitter! We’ve done a couple of practice walks so far so I know it’s going to be tough! Because we’re doing this in November when the days are shorter, we’ve decided it’s going to be much safer to do it over 2 days. Day 1 we’re walking from Whitby to Runswick Bay, then on Nov 2nd we’ll have 18 miles to complete over quite challenging terrain. We’ll pass along the top of Huntcliff, a place where sadly many people have taken their lives over recent years. I know that COVID and lockdown have been hard for people’s mental health, and many people are suffering. 

Local Minds have to raise their own funds to deliver services and have been badly hit by a lack of fundraising, so I want to do my bit to help.

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.
