Story
My Dad died on Thursday 19th January as a result of bowel cancer. Reflecting on this together with Dad’s love of steam trains and nature, we are raising money in his memory for Cancer Research UK, the RSPB, Prostate Cancer UK and the Swanage Railway Trust.
We walked from Corfe Castle to Bridport in May 2023. The route passed the Swanage Railway, Dad’s birth-place, the church where Mum and Dad were married, and a couple of RSPB nature reserves. We walked the 100km route in one go, walking through the night.
I have set up this JustGiving fundraiser to raise money in Dad’s memory for the RSPB. If you’d like to know more about my Dad and two of the other charities we raised money for then please visit his on-line tribute https://johncoker.muchloved.com/
