I’m walking the South West Coast Path in September to raise money to help protect and restore our oceans.

The South West Coast Path will be a real challenge - it’ll take 6 weeks, 630 miles, 4 equivalents of Everest in elevation and god knows how many blisters. I‘ll be carrying my tent and camping every night, come rain or shine. Most people do the walk in 8 weeks, so we may not finish it in 6 weeks but we‘ll go as far as we physically can within that time! I’ll be walking with Emma who is raising money for ActionAid UK (visit her JustGiving page too!), and hopefully some others will join us along the way. It’ll be hard but seeing the ocean every day will remind me of why I’m doing it.

Oceana is the largest international advocacy organisation focused solely on ocean conservation. The oceans are vast, but they are not immune to human influence. We have already altered or destroyed marine ecosystems and driven million-year-old species to the brink of extinction. According to a study published in Science, less than 4 percent of the oceans remain unaffected by human activity. Oceana works on a number of strategic campaigns to stop ocean pollution, protect marine wildlife, promote responsible fishing, stop offshore drilling and ocean acidification, and more.

Every donation will motivate us to keep walking, so thank you so so much for donating, every penny counts. We’re covering all costs of the trip ourselves so all of the money raised will go directly to our chosen charities Oceana and ActionAid UK.

Thank you!
