I aim to take part in the "walk 50" challenge on the 10th June and raise funds for the Dimbleby Cancer Care, a charity attached to Guy's & St Thomas' (GSTT) Hospitals helping people with cancer and their families.

GSTT's palliative team care were of great support when Antonia was terminally ill, I would like to give that back to them. And what better way than walking, which itself is something helping me with the loss. To put it in Antonia's own words:

walking focuses the mind on a linear narrative of time and space - you can only see and contemplate where you walk (...) simply reconnecting with real time and space is healing in its own right. It makes evolutionary sense. Our bodies and to some extent our minds, are made to live in the here and now, to feel our feet on the earth and hear the blood in our eardrums.
