Hi everyone! Thank you in advance for any donations for this fundraiser. I will post pictures from practice walks on this page ahead of the 52km challenge in May on the Isle of Wight!

I have also been working on several features for Metro.co.uk which highlight how important the work of Missing People is. You can find out about families supported by the charity, read stories from call-handlers and learn about the policy work underway on the link below. Thank you to the Missing People team for their help with these stories.
