Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This idea was given to me during Covid when we were locked down. On an international family zoom call the length of the British Isles was mentioned, googled in  Canada , where I was born, 864 miles was quoted. A little voice said out loud and  was witnessed worldwide, ' I want to walk that'  Guidedogs were struggling to manage. I have raised 26 puppies and wanted to give something back. My grandson will need a guide dog, friends benefit from them;  thinking big: I can do a big walk once recovered from my hysterectomy, become a pensioner whilst I am walking and  tell people about guidedogs, how I earned my BEM and how rewarding volunteering is.  The idea was born;  the route created. okay, 1000 miles to walk, a nice round number. Ending as a pensioner entitled to a bus pass and free prescriptions again and in time to attend a summer Scout Jamboree.  Raising money for guidedogs. What could be better?
