Hi everyone! I'm excited to share my next adventure with you all! This time, I'm taking on the full 268 miles (431km) of the Pennine Way - the UK's original and most challenging long-distance trail. After successfully completing challenges like The UK Three Peaks and Mt Kilimanjaro, I’m ready for this trek - solo this time as Shiro is a bit intimidated by the thought of 13 English Breakfasts in a row!

This trek is longer than 10 marathons and has an overall elevation higher than Everest, totaling 39,000 feet (12,000M). As I embark on this meaningful trip that has been on my to-do list since childhood in Barnsley, I aim to finish in just 13 days, averaging about 20 miles each day.

I would be incredibly grateful for your support as I raise funds for two wonderful charities: Barnsley Independent Alzheimer's and Dementia Support (BIADS), which provides vital assistance to those affected by dementia and their families; and the Barnsley Youth Choir, which nurtures talented young individuals and showcases our town's rich arts and culture on a global stage.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and secure. Your details are safe with them; they will never sell your information or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, your contribution goes directly to the charity, making it the most efficient way to support these important causes. Together, we can make a difference!
