I have worked for the Trust for over 20 years as a Consultant looking after people with strokes, head injuries and amputations, and I have also received fantastic care myself when I had a brain tumour, epilepsy and more recently prostate cancer.

I am walking from Land's End to John O'Groats to celebrate the end of my time working for the Trust, a walk of over 1,000 miles which will take me about 14 weeks. I hope to include several long distance foot paths as part of the walk including the Offa's Dyke walk and the West Highland Way.
