Story

2022 was on horse back, 2023 was walking 30 miles while rather pregnant, 2024 returns with walking but with baby in tow too!

Goal: walk 100km in July

Fundraising target: £50

This July, we are going to be walking for the BHS’s Rideathon Challenge, to protect over 78,000km of off-road routes that could be lost forever. Adventure days off-road and the freedom of the countryside - if we lose our off-road routes, these days will disappear. We can’t let that happen. I'm ready to ride to save it. Your support will help The British Horse Society to restore damaged paths, reopen blocked routes, and repair gates and fencing, ensuring safe off-road access for not only equestrians but other route users like cyclists and walkers too. With hundreds of horse and rider injuries reported to the BHS each year, it’s vital we keep riders off the roads.

Thank you so much to everyone who can support me and my family to raise £50 for a cause we both really believe in; the right to adventure so we can continue to enjoy the countryside together, safely and easily.
