This year, I’ve embarked on an incredible journey—one that will test my endurance, challenge my limits, and most importantly, support a cause that’s very close to my heart. In 2025, I’m challenging myself to complete 10 Ultra Challenges and a minimum of 500km to raise funds for East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH).

These events will take me across some of the most breathtaking landscapes in England and Wales—from the rugged trails of the Lake District to the sweeping coastlines of the Gower Peninsula. Each challenge is more than a marathon in distance, traversing tough terrain and offering stunning views that serve as both motivation and reward.

I feel that I have broken the back of the challenge, having done seven with three more to go, two in September and one in October. The next one being the biggest challenge of the ten, a 57km, 1,700m elevation challenge on the South Coast.

This journey isn’t just about the distance—it’s about making a difference. EACH provides compassionate, specialist care for children and young people with life-threatening conditions across Cambridgeshire, Essex, Norfolk, and Suffolk. Their support extends from hospices—Milton, The Treehouse, and The Nook—to the homes and hospitals where families need them most. Their work is only possible through the generosity of others, and that’s why I’ve committed to raising a minimum of £5,000—£10 for every kilometre I walk.

Every donation, no matter the size, brings me closer to that goal and helps ensure that EACH can continue offering vital services to families during their most difficult moments.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for considering a donation. Your support truly means the world.
