24 mile walk - From Chester to Crewe · 19 June 2025

Caudwell Children transforms the lives of disabled children across the UK. We act as a safety net for families who are unable to gain the help they need. We provide family support services, equipment, treatment and therapies for disabled children and their families across the UK.

Story

On the 19th June 2025, I'm taking part in Likewize's Charity Challenge, where I'll take on a 24-mile walk from Chester to Crewe for Caudwell Children – a charity dedicated to transforming the lives of disabled and autistic children across the UK.

This is more than just a physical challenge. Every mile I walk represents the journey thousands of families go through every day – navigating complex systems, seeking support, and fighting for their children to have the same opportunities as everyone else. Caudwell Children provides life-changing services, from mobility equipment and autism assessments to sensory packs and family support.

Why this matters:

1 in 7 children in the UK lives with a disability

The average cost of raising a disabled child is more than £500 extra per month

Caudwell Children helps families access the support they need, when they need it most

By donating, you're not just supporting me – you're standing alongside these children and families. Every pound makes a real difference.

✅ £10 could fund sensory toys to calm an anxious child

✅ £25 could contribute to a specialist therapy session

✅ £50 could help fund an autism assessment for a child in need

Please give whatever you can and help me make every step count. Let’s walk together for brighter futures.

Thank you so much for your support 💜
