We both know what it’s like to grow up in a family where money is tight and Christmas can be a difficult time. As children, we were fortunate to receive support from charities, helping to make Christmas a little more festive when our families couldn’t afford gifts or treats.

That kindness has stayed with us, and now we’d like to give something back.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Viking Way, we’re taking on an unsupported fastpacking challenge to raise money for The Bridge Lincoln Christmas Sack Appeal 2026.

Every penny raised will help provide Christmas gifts and essential festive items for Lincolnshire families who are struggling financially, helping to ensure that children wake up to a little bit of Christmas magic.

Thank you for supporting us and, most importantly, for helping make Christmas brighter for local families who need it most.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once the challenge is complete, we will purchase festive items and share the receipts and the donation on the page as updates.
