We're walking in memory of our boy, Merlin and hoping that with every mile comes a little healing. I was going to raise some money for a dog charity, but Merlin loved nothing more than days spent wiggling his toes in soft, warm sand and eating ice cream. He totally appreciated how important holidays are.

That's why we're raising money for the Family Holiday Association. FHA help families struggling in really tough situations to get a much-needed break or day out. Their holidays aren't a luxury, they're a lifeline and by sponsoring us, you'll be helping families take a much-needed break by the British seaside.

Starting on 1st March, we're hoping to finish on 11th June, which was Merlin's adoption day, but due to the usual health wobbles I hope you'll understand if we run a little late.
