Day's Lands End to John O'Groats Challenge

David Rutherford is raising money for Mountbatten Isle of Wight
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Lands End to John O'Groats · 13 September 2020

Mountbatten is the Isle of Wight's only hospice and is known for innovation across the UK and beyond. We provide expert medical, nursing and domiciliary end of life care and bereavement support to people in their own homes, including care homes, in our Newport building and in the local hospital.

Story

Hi my names Day, 

I am a photographer from the Isle of Wight and have decided to embark on this very crazy challenge to raise funds for Mountbatten Hospice.

After two successful challenges (The English Chanel "21Miles" & Hadrians Wall "90Miles") I have decided to end the year on my biggest walking challenge yet.  

The aim is to walk the length of Lands End to John O'Groats by Christmas a whopping 1083 Miles, this is no small feat, it works out to be 10 miles a day for 15 weeks and it's something I'm not overly prepared for but throwing myself into it none the less. 

With this epic challenge ahead of me I thought this was the perfect opportunity to raise much needed funds for the Mountbatten Hospice here on the Isle of Wight.

We all have a connection to the Hospice, whether we have needed the service ourselves or have had a family member in need of the service.

With the current situation and Covid-19 fundraising has been tough this year so if you can donate anything at all it will go to this much needed service.
