Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

For over 20 years we have talked about undertaking the ultimate UK walking challenge upon retirement, journeying from John O'Groats to Lands End (JOGLE).  Scarily we haven't wised up (or grown up!) in that time and the plane north is booked.  During the last decade we have both suffered from prostate cancer and resulting operations.  Therefore it only seemed right that we dedicate the walk to all those who have suffered directly, or indirectly as their friends and family, and raise money for one of the leading charities that helped us, Prostate Cancer UK.

JOGLE is a daunting task, not least the challenge of remaining friends for 10 weeks!  We start at JOG on 1st May 2019 and, all being well, we will finish at LE in early July (yes, 2019!).  Our planned route is over 1,000 miles, taking in the Great Glen Way, West Highland Way and Offa's Dyke.  An average day will be spent walking a distance of approaching 20 miles, with a few rest days along the way.  Our gear has been pared down to the last ounce as we have to carry what we take.  Knowing we have your support would really help to keep us going.  

11,000 men die each year as a result of prostate cancer and it is predicted to become the most common cancer in the UK by 2030.  Sponsoring us will help Prostate Cancer UK revolutionise the way prostate cancer is detected and treated as well as providing vital services for men with the disease, as they did for us.

So please dig deep and donate now.....a journey of well over 2 million steps has got to be worth something...…other than blisters!
