Story

I'm off again...

Those that followed my South Downs Way challenge of a couple of years ago I'm off again! This time I'm heading off with hubby Si and daughter Ella and the three dogs to tackle the South Coast Curve for two amazing charities. I'm hoping that all people and dogs are able to see the challenge through this time and I'll be giving regular updates to keep you entertained via Facebook, with all the usual amounts of drama that follows me about!

Charity 1 is Slow Ways. Slow Ways have set up to try and connect transport hubs and towns with walking/cycling networks across the UK. Part of this challenge is verifying routes for them and I'll talk about this more as we go, but they are well worth checking out and getting involved with if you can spare some time! https://beta.slowways.org/

Charity 2 is Midshires Search and Rescue. As you may be aware our Search and Rescue teams across the UK go out looking for missing and vulnerable people under police instruction and guidance, as well as offering resilience and community support. They are entirely self funded through charity donations and the teams are all volunteers who give their time for free.

Two very worthwhile causes... I'll be collecting financial donations and sponsorship for Midshires, so if you're able to donate that would be amazing... For those of you that haven't got the financial freedom to donate please like and share my Facebook posts as spreading the word of these amazing charities is just as important!

Thank you!

About the charity

Midshires Search and Rescue

Verified by JustGiving

RCN 1110825
We are an organisation of trained volunteers who can be called out by the Police to search for missing and vulnerable people. We can be called to assist other Lowland search teams in major incidents in neighbouring areas, and we are also able to assist in civil emergency situations. We may be mobilised at short notice to search for a missing person in woodland, quarries, watercourses, nature reserves, farmland, towns and villages. Operating in all weathers, 24/7, 365 days a year, our search teams can save lives. Families and friends of missing people appreciate that a group of specialist volunteers have been ready and able to give their time to search for their loved one.
