Story

Hi all!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Right, my lovely friend Jess Kinney and I are walking from Dover to Land's End this summer in aid of two separate charities. As you may or may not know (if your geography skills are slightly lacking) this is quite a bit of walking. The route we're planning to take is 424 miles long - although this is subject to change at the moment as we are still in the midst of booking places at camping sites.

Unfortunately, due to prior commitments that we can't miss, like choir and graduation ceremonies we will have to split this walk into two halves, from the 29th June to the 10th July (from Dover to Lyme Regis) and then from the 27th July to the 5th August (from Lyme Regis on to Land's End)

The charity we're supporting at my request is Cruse Bereavement Care and Jessie's charity is Childreach International - she's also being a fantastic lady and climbing Kilimanjaro for them in August!

I chose Cruse Bereavement Care as they have really helped in the last eight months after Mum died, and I'd like to pay them back in a small way for that help.

If for whatever reason you'd prefer to support Jessie's charity instead of/as well as mine, please do go to her fundraising site and donate at http://uk.virginmoneygiving.co m/jesskinney. Please note this site is for her Kilimanjaro trip and her donations have been suplemented by many other fundraising events - that total is no where near what I am expecting for my charity from this walk!!

Anyway, thanks for reading this essay, and if you support us then thank you very much!

We'll keep you updated as we can!
