Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Hello there. My name is Robert. In December 2025, my world turned upside down when my beloved partner, Linda, suddenly and unexpectedly passed away.
Descending into a very dark depression, and overcome with grief, I thought there was no future worth having.
But now, I have chosen to embrace life and honour my Linda, by walking the entire coast of Great Britain, starting in 2027.
Linda loved walking and so loved the coast. What better tribute could there be?
I will be raising money for two local charities which Linda loved to support - EACH (East Anglian Children's Hospices) and Tapping House Hospice - I have set up pages here where you can donate to them if you wish.
During the walk, I hope to meet with and chat with fellow grievers and a whole raft of people to discuss mental health and grief in a comforting, spiritually aware way.
If you would like to support me in my planning, training and walking, I would be eternally grateful if you could help me. I need to cover my living costs during this whole challenge - food, basic accommodation and more. This will take in excess of two years and I am happy to take on work as I go, but I really need help to get me under way.
Linda's Legacy - All Around The Coast, will be regularly updating progress online through my YouTube channel and other social media so everyone can follow my journey.
