Hello my name is Jacob and I’m going to walk at least 100 miles with my Dad before my home schooling finishes. This so we can stay fit and healthy and raise some much needed funds for an important local charity.

A little bit about the charity.

Lockdown, PPE and visitor restrictions didnt stop Sue Ryder. They kept on caring because people like me cared too. But there is one thing that could stop them now. With less income from their shops and many fundraising events cancelled this year, they already have £2m less coming in each month than they need to keep running at full capacity. We are now in a second national lockdown; every week Sue Ryder's shops are closed the charity loses an additional £500,000. Coronavirus cases are on the rise again and conditions like cancer are going untreated. Sue Ryder Nurses and healthcare staff are needed more than ever at a time when they simply dont have enough funding. Were facing an end-of-life care crisis the likes of which weve never seen before.
