I would like to raise some much needed funds for a local animal charity called 'Anim-Mates' (which has a sanctuary in Ash, Kent) that looks after rescued animals and tries to find foster homes. This is a tribute to my partner Karen Yardley who was an incredible person who adored animals and would want any animal to be given a second chance to lead a happy life.

In order to do this I am part of a walking group which aims to complete the Dark Peak Challenge (24 miles) in the Peak District on the 14th July.
