I shall be walking/trekking the Coast to Coast route in July with my dogs Rupert and Murphy. I shall complete the 190 mile route with all my equipment and aim to rough camp along the way. My aim is to complete the route in just 10 days.

The reason for this challenge is to raise funds for the International Nepal Fellowship. A colleague of mine goes out to Nepal annually to help with medical care for woman in Nepal who have little or no medical assistance. My colleague fundraises tirelessly throughout the year using her own time and often funds in order to make a difference for these woman and i feel if i can help out with this and help to positively change peoples live's then i will. Those who know me will also be aware that i never pass up on the chance to have a bash at a new challenge - however daft it may be!!!!!!!
