Tamar Trail Sponsored Walk 15 miles · 11 July 2015
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We have volunteered to walk the 15 mile Tamar Trails Discovery Challenge on 11th July to raise some valuable funds for the local user-led disability charity, Living Options Devon. We were hoping for a nice flat route but having received the pack, it seems we are promised 'a number of steep climbs'... It will certainly be a challenge but worth it. Any donation, no matter what size, would be greatly appreciated (as will any donations of plasters!).
This year is Living Options' 25th anniversary, having been established in 1990 by Peter Swain OBE following a sporting accident which left him disabled. The charity provides a wide range of services to support disabled and Deaf people. For example, the Countryside Mobility scheme provides 'Trampers' (all terrain mobility scooters) which people with limited mobility can use to enjoy exploring countryside locations such as the Tamar Trails.
"Had it not been for the opportunity of hiring a mobility scooter, we simply would not have been able to do anything there except, possibly, sit in the cafe because of my chronic rheumatoid arthritis. We had a wonderful experience seeing the gardens together."

Wish us luck! Thanks, Sarah, Mike, Liz, Geoff and Mary
