Issy's WALKING FOR WOMEN
Fundraising for Rape Crisis England & Wales
Story
A little about me and why-
I am a small, petite, young looking female of 24. Like many other women I have spent my life feeling vulnerable. I constantly strive to find a voice and the courage to use it. I struggle to find independence and the self-assurance to act on instinct and follow my will.
I see now how the world has suppressed the desire to live purely as a human being and not be compromised by your sex. And it's hard- I'm not a fighter- I'm not even particularly political. I am, however, good at feeling and I understand, as a women, I don't feel whole.
If I'm honest -I am scared. Scared to walk home alone- scared to say or be true to how I feel - scared to get what I want - scared to act on desire -scared to be my full potential.
And if any of you feel this way then why?
It's time to start conquering this fear and support those who lack empowerment and courage.
I want to help the progress of change in my self and others......
In order to do so I will be walking the south west coast of England over the summer. Me myself and I, with a one man tent, will walk 8 hours per day for a week from Plymouth, Cornwall to Lyme Regis, Dorset. That's 125 miles.
The exact date of my trip is private but I will be keeping a vocal diary of the experience to do a further right up / audio pod cast including some photographic evidence - to ease those skeptics out there.
Your help and support is needed here. Please give whatever you can to this wonderful charity. We must continue to encourage growth and change. Spread the word to everyone and let's raise more awareness.
