Carl Peach, a client of NAB, has decided to take on a mammoth fundraising challenge by taking a total of 10 million steps over 12 months, which is around 4,000 miles, or from Northampton to Cuba! Carl's sight began to deteriorate suddenly just under a year ago. He was inspired to complete this challenge by the support he received from our Eye Clinic Liaison Officer, Laura and our Community Support Worker, Kay. Carl is keen to raise vital funds for NAB and to demonstrate that losing your sight doesn't mean giving up on your independence and drive.

Carl has been busy training for the challenge come rain or shine and aims to walk 27,000 steps daily, starting from midnight on the 31st March at Pitsford Reservoir.

He will be inviting people to join him on his shorter daily walks spread across his working day and on a longer walk one weekend a month. These extended walks will take place across the county in a range of interesting yet accessible locations. One of these walks will be along the Brampton Valley Way from Market Harborough to Northampton, joining us on our Tunnel Trek challenge as part of his route. As part of Tunnel Trek, there will be an option to do our usual route or join Carl on the full walk, meeting up with the other Tunnel Trekkers.
