Hadrian's Wall · 31 May 2023

Mark was a decorated officer in the UK Special Forces. He had tested himself in some of the most arduous environments. Life was frantic and dangerous, but it was what he had joined up to do. In the space of a few minutes all that was about to change. Mark suffered a major stroke whilst driving back from London that would lead him to be hospitalised for over a year. Thankfully with the help of his family, friends and some very supportive charities including Help for Heroes, Mark is now back on his feet again with a greater determination to help others who may be similarly affected. In 2016 and 2017, Mark was selected to take part in the Invictus Games, winning medals in swimming. Since then, he as dedicated himself to helping others. Mark established the Bowra Foundation in 2019, to inspire resilience amongst people suffering from neurological disorders through practical help and physical challenges alongside members of the Armed Forces community.

Story

After successfully completing the South Downs Way last year - https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/georgeandharry we are heading North to Hadrian's Wall to raise money for another great charity in the Bowra Foundation https://www.bowra-foundation.org/#home. Our plan is to set off from Bowness-on-Solway on 27th May and finish in Newcastle on 1st June completing 84 miles in just over 4 days. We will be doing this unsupported but will have two adults following 3 hours behind with our aim being for them not to catch us. Thank you for your support.
