Story
When I am on the trails or in the mountains it feels like such a privilege. There is something special about being able to escape into the beautiful countryside and appreciate the outdoors. This very new charity set up by a friend, 'Lake District Mobility' is giving more people the opportunity to enjoy what many of us take for granted. When Julia was setting up the charity I had already signed up to run the Lakeland 100. To run 100+ miles I am going to need all the motivation I can and what better way than feeling I am helping a cause that will help enable others to be able to get outdoors.
As a newly founded charity I wanted to help make it known to others and also contribute in some way as it gets started. Any donations will make such a difference in getting it off the ground and therefore enabling more individuals and families to access the beautiful lake district. Check out www.lakedistrictmobility.co.uk for more information about the charity.

On the 28th July 2017 I will be leaving Coniston to complete a 105 miles on foot. I have until the 30th at 10am to finish the course. This is a challenge that is beyond comprehension but I am determined to complete and hopefully put towards a great cause.
