Event: Oasis Coast-To-Coast Challenge, on 1 June 2021
The challenge is to cover 300 kilometres averaging 10k a day over 30 days. Coast-to-Coast invites you to walk, run or cycle 300K in the month of June. You can go solo, join with a friend, or take on those 300 kilometres as part of a team.

Story

During the month of June I will take part in Oasis’ virtual coast to coast challenge and walk/run (and maybe cycle if I fall drastically behind the target) the 300km it takes to get from St Bees in Cumbria to Robin Hoods Bay in North Yorkshire. 

Oasis are an amazing charity which I have had the privilege of working with for nearly four years and they genuinely transform the lives of those in their community who are forgotten about and cast off by other parts of society. 

Time and again I have witnessed people move from isolation, loneliness and hopefulness to feeling included, valued and a complete change in their outlook on life. 

If you could sponsor me during this challenge and help those in East Manchester then I’d be really grateful!
