Children 1st is Scotland's National Children's Charity. They help Scotland's families to put children first, with practical advice and support in difficult times. When the worst happens, they support survivors of abuse, neglect, and other traumatic events in childhood, to recover. #giveasmileback

I am blessed with having two lovely, energetic and happy boys, who are very fortunate. When the opportunity arose to join the Children 1st Team in battling the elements of the Arctic whilst raising money to support Scotland's less fortunate children and families, it was an opportunity not to be missed! 

I will be walking 70km in sub zero temperatures (up to -30!) across the Arctic Circle in January 2020. This will be a massive physical and mental challenge for me personally but I relish the opportunity to push myself to the limits!
