Story

Hi to one and all, thank you for taking the time to actually visit this page, I'm Martin just a normal chap whose mother passed away and left me a very modest inheritance and a question of what to do with it? So, in her memory I decided to put it to good use.

I've been aware of Derian house children's hospice for a good few years and the incredible work that they do for the children and their families who are having to deal with conditions that young people should just not have to deal with and for me they were the obvious choice, so I decided to do something to raise awareness for such a worthy cause and that something is walking from Canterbury to Rome.
