Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

For over a thousand years pilgrims have been travelling on foot to the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, North-Westernmost Spain where the apostle Saint James the Great is said to be laid to rest.  The route; known as The Way of St James is one which will challenge individuals both physically and mentally as they wind their way along the varied routes and terrain.

The 'Camino de Santiago de Compostela' accommodates many motiviations and intentions,  and is for anyone who decides they'd like to take the opportunity to experience it.  Notably; it is not a journey to be rushed. 

On behalf of CAFOD I will walk the last 100 miles(160km) 2nd/12th September, to raise vital funds to give hope to some of the world's poorest communities and make a real difference to people's lives.

"Your  small actions can make a world of difference to those in need"
