I decided at the beginning of the year to walk 1000 miles by my 60th birthday in July.  At the time of starting this personal challenge I was unaware of the Hope Foundation UK and their work.  Upon becoming aware of the foundations ‘Footsteps for HOPE’ I would like to support this event in order to help is some small way.  I have therefore brought my target forward a month in order to walk a 1000 miles by 12th June and hopefully raise some much needed funds for HOPE.
