Coast to Coast Across Scotland

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In May 2026 I shall be walking over 300 km (with all my kit on my back - tent, food etc.) from the West to East coast of Scotland to raise funds for the Lothian Veterans Centre. This will take around 2 weeks.

Supporting those that have served is close to my heart as I have worked for the MoD for over 10 years and I am currently studying a PhD in the Health Outcomes of Female Military Veterans in Scotland and launched the Her Service Her Health project as part of the Lothian Veterans Centre Female Veterans Networking event in February 2026.

This will be a huge personal challenge, I was meant to walk this in 2024 but due to requiring major foot surgery I was unable to complete it.
