After taking on the Hadrian's Wall National Trail in August 2016 I really wanted to take on another trek for charity. The South Downs Way is a 100 mile national trail between Winchester and Eastbourne which I will be attempting to walk in just 5 days.

On choosing a charity to support I could not think of a more worthwhile cause than the fantastic Vale Wildlife Hospital, based near Beckford, Worcestershire, who take in and look after injured and sick wildlife without hesitation . Vale had already helped over 1300 animals by March this year and it is looking to be one of the busiest years yet - anything you can spare to sponsor me on this trek will be enormously  helpful and I thank you very much.
