My target 70 mi

I am raising money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People

Thank you everyone for coming to have a look!

I have a severe hearing lost since birth which has isolated me somewhat. Recently I started walking to help recover from mental health challenges and had planned a 7 mile walk at the end of October but with this wonderful opportunity to walk more and raise money, I have signed up finishing with the 'Devils Dyke' (Newmarket) walk.

This is important for me as I have also been accepted to receive one amazing dog in the future which will improve my quality of life immensely.

The end, a beautiful sunset.

So glad we finished with a beautiful sunset on the edge of The Fenlands.

Devils Dyke, last walk.

Friday 30th Oct
As I said at the beginning of this challenge I was going to end with a 7.5 walk that I have wanted to do for a long time. Well yesterday on a beautiful autumn day I completed the Devils Dyke walk and got to 70 miles in the month of October. Thank you for all of you the sponsored me, I am glad to have raised £1,336 to a charity close to my heart.
