Hi there and thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for Odyssey.

On 1st May, 2025, I will embark on another demanding challenge and adventure. This time, I will swap my trusty sea kayak for a stout pair of walking boots and walk to the four geographical corners of mainland Scotland. I will begin at the Mull of Galloway, the southernmost point and walk to Peterhead, the easternmost point. From here I head west to Ardnamurchan, the westernmost point, before walking through the Highlands to Dunnet Head, the northernmost point. The total length of the route I have planned is 1009 miles or 1614 km! I hope I will complete the trek within three months.

I am used to adventurous challenges like this one and I'm confident I will see it through to a successful completion. Nevertheless, it will be an arduous undertaking, especially for a 61 year old man such as me, who has concentrated on paddling a kayak rather than walking in the mountains.

Odyssey is a cancer charity close to my heart and I'm proud to be one of their Ambassadors. Odyssey enhances the quality of life for people with cancer through imaginative programmes of challenging and dramatic activities using the outdoors. I worked for them as an instructor for a number of years and witnessed at first hand the powerful and important service they provide.

Their services in the form of wonderful, week long, residential outdoor activity courses are free for each individual. To enable this to happen, the charity requires plenty of funds, which is why I've set the ambitious fundraising target I have. I appreciate you visiting my page and I sincerely hope you are happy to make a donation.

Thank you so very much and warmest wishes.

Nick
