Story
On the 23rd February 2022 we will be embarking on a challenging adventure by walking the CAMINO DE SANTIAGO. This is a 500 mile hike from St Jean Pied de Port, France all the way to Santiago, Spain. We will be backpacking our way along the different villages in France and Spain which will take approximately 30-34 days!
There's no better way to walk this amazing trail than in memory of loved ones we have lost over the last few years. We want to raise as much money as possible for charities very close to our hearts.
In 2021 we lost the legend that was Bob Casey. He was a very thoughtful person who always put others before himself. His favourite charity was Children in Need so we would love to raise money for such an amazing charity and do it in memory of Bob.
In 2019 we lost Sam Pegram who was on board a flight that crashed with no survivors when he was travelling to Nairobi while working for the Norwegian Refugee Council. Sam was a passionate Humanitarian and was dedicating his life to support and help people. His family have set up the Sam Pegram Humanitarian Fund where they continue to support this work in his name. We will be raising money to help this effort.
Any donations would be greatly appreciated and will go towards causes that meant alot to Bob and Sam.
Buen Camino!
Johnny Casey, Rachel Casey and Jonny Stewart
