I wish to raise equal amounts for my five nominated charities, please therefore help me level out the donations by sponsoring NRAS, RABI, Devon Mind or RBL. Sidmouth Hospice at Home has had a head start. Thank you!

On 1st August 2025, I will be setting off from my home in East Devon to walk over 750 miles through the UK to Glen Etive in the Scottish Highlands – a place close to the Caves’ hearts.

I will be putting my best foot forward and averaging 20 miles a day, in memory of my dad, John Cave, and everyone else we've lost too soon. It’s a reminder that life is short – so grasp it!

Dad dedicated his life to the people of Devon, charities, agriculture, and his family. I aim to raise £50,000 in his memory for five brilliant charities that mean a lot to us:

- Sidmouth Hospice at Home, providing palliative care to people in the Sid Valley (including Dad) with a terminal illness.

- National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society (NRAS), supporting people living with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) – a cause close to both Dad’s and my heart.

- Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution (RABI), providing local support to the farming community across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

- Devon Mind, leading the fight for mental health in Devon and working to expand their free counselling services to meet rising demand.

- Royal British Legion (RBL) Sidbury & Sidford Branch, providing lifelong support to the local Armed Forces community. Dad was President, and Uncle Tom is soon to become Vice President.

Thank you so much for your kind support – and I hope you’ll come and join me along the way!
