Growing up with a Dad who suffers from Multiple Sclerosis and has gradually lost the use of his legs (and prior was the most active person on the planet), I have inherited the belief that if we have the ability to do things -- we should always strive to.
Working with the incredible individuals at Headway Nottingham who have experienced Brain Injury and might have all kinds of associated difficulties as a result; including with their mobility, much like my Dad; has only cemented this belief.

That said, I have the use of my legs. I am fortunate.
I can enjoy the countryside.
I can go out for hours with my dog.
I can nip to the shops.
And I can often be found parked in the furthest bay away at the supermarket without mither.

Therefore, what finer challenge than to set myself the goal to 'walk to work' for a week in June!!!
That for a few wouldn't be an issue - but considering I'll be crossing county's; from Derbyshire to Nottinghamshire (12.5miles & 3.5hours of walking per day from 6am - 9.30am) and covering in excess of 60miles over the week. I'm confident I've set myself quite the trial :)

I have a target to raise £750 which is potentially a VAST amount of money for Headway Nottingham.

It could for example pay for a 10week course of 'Walking for Fitness' sessions for Headway Nottingham's clients. Affording those who may no longer be able to leave the house alone, the opportunity to take those first steps with a sense of achievement for people who are regularly told they are 'disabled'.

If you could donate, big or small you will be giving me that push and helping to secure what is a beyond wonderful service for so many.
