Story

In August, I'll be taking part in the South West Coast 50 Ultra Challenge. I am aiming to complete the 50km loop starting and ending in Dunster via a mix of jogging and hiking. I'm taking part in the challenge for fun so I've paid for my entry, but I thought it would also be a good opportunity to try to raise some money for a great cause – Somerset Wildlife Trust. I have included some information from their website and fundraising pack below:

'Somerset Wildlife Trust is one of 46 Wildlife Trusts working across the UK. We are a science-led movement focused on restoring habitats to support a wide range of wildlife and restore natural processes that are essential for healthy landscapes, and provide vital services such as clean air and water, food, carbon absorption and flood alleviation.'

'With the invaluable support of volunteers and members we manage over 1700 hectares of land for wildlife and people in Somerset. We also work with other organisations and landowners to protect and connect wildlife sites across the county and inspire local communities and young people to care for wildlife where they live.'
