February 26th I will be starting from Hospiscare East & Mid Devon, Exeter on my first leg of approximately 300 miles that is Hospiscare's boundary of care...This isn't a speed trial but a reflective walk/trot during which many friends will come to mind drawing attention to Hospiscare's current needs of having to raise £8million annually.

February 27th is a huge date for our family, the day I received my MBE in 2002 for 'services to the community, especially Hospiscare'. the 28th will be my 71st birthday 😊 

MILITARY CHARITIES......Carrying 'The Baton' www.thebaton.co.uk as I go I would also would like to remind and encourage Military charities to make a donation to local hospices, yes we all care for our veterans when alive but please don't forget who sees veterans and their families through the end of life journey... Hoping you'll follow my journey🙏
