Hey everyone, my name is Matt and I am raising money for Care for Kids North Devon by participating in the South Downs Way 50. This is a 50 mile foot race encompassing 5700ft elevation gain.

Care for Kids North Devon provides instant financial assistance to families that have a child 0-18yrs diagnosed with a life-threatening illness.

Because of North Devon’s rural location, all seriously ill children are now treated in specialist children’s hospitals in Bristol or beyond. For families in North Devon, this means the loss of earnings, subsistence and travel costs for parents traveling and staying in Bristol, Oxford, Birmingham or London.

An unbearable thought for all parents, please help me reach my target in raising some money for this vital children's charity. No donation too small, thank you.
