As its 2018 and with how I normally like to set myself 2 new challenges a year, to take on new things which I have not done before. I have been thinking of how 2018 can be different and make a difference whilst still having time for my family in between work etc and some rest!

In 2018 I will be taking it a step further, to celebrate turning 40 and to do more good for worthy causes and our environment, I will volunteer 40 hours of my time to charities, helping them anyway I can. I have also set myself a challenge of walking 3000 miles over the year (8.21miles per day average), I thought it would be more of a challenge than the 1000 miles I have seen to take on! I will undertake some walking and running events and anything I can think of that will challenge me whilst also doing some car boots to raise funds for charity.

At the end 2018 I will give the money to the charities, I would like to raise a least £500. I will also, whilst out walking collect a bag of rubbish each time to help clear up our lanes and stop plastics etc ending up on our beaches and sea. Any cans will be going to Durrell’s Cans for corridors scheme, there are lots of cans and rubbish in the lanes I walk!
