I‘ve just finished walking the Scottish National Trail, a crazy 536 miles long walk over 32 days. It took me over some pretty challenging areas, including much of the Cape Wrath trail, the UK‘s toughest with its river crossings, bogs and wild camping. I’m 66 this year, so this quite a challenge and probably a little insane.

I did the walk to support a charity which I partner with in the work I do as a volunteer in my local village where we provide low cost food to people to both help with the cost of living and prevent food waste. Right now, more than 1 million people in the south west are living in poverty. By saving nutritious food destined for landfill and sharing it with people in need, FareShare South West joins the dots between hunger and food waste. It’s a local charity run by wonderful people so every £1 I raise I know will be well used. Please help me raise money for this brilliant charity.

Thank you
