17 years ago i broke my neck. i spent 6 months in Stoke Mandeville Hospital, it was there i met Matt Hampson (“Hambo” as he is Known), we have been great friends ever since. I still have paralysis down one side of my body, i walk with the aid of a pair of elbow crutches. On 17th of june 2023 i will attempt to walk 111 miles round the entire Warwickshire Ring to raise money for Hambo's incredible charity. i shall sleep on a barge that will follow me along the canal, It will take me an average of fifteen hours per day, every day for 7 days to complete the walk, We aim to Raise £100.000 to help fund an extension to the “Get Busy Living Centre”
i Know times are hard out there but any donation would be gratefully received, “THANK YOU”!
