Help me to save more lives

I'm raising funds for my local air ambulance who saved my son's life when I had to call emergency services. Without their expert care my son would not have survived.  I cannot thank them enough.

I am setting off from Minehead  on Tuesday 17th June to walk to Lands End which almost 260 miles .  The elevation to Lands End from Minehead is approximately 50,000 ft of elevation.   (Everest is 28,000 ft).     

Please either sponsor me or support your  local air ambulance.  Warwickshire & Northamptonshire/Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland air ambulance critical care paramedics, doctors and pilots attend an average of five rescue missions a day.

The air ambulance gives people the very best chance of survival and recovery. They are supported by a Critical Care Car meaning that they can reach those who need it 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. The charity receives no government funding for its daily missions.

Day 8 Westward Ho to Clovelley

Monday 7th Jul
A 12 mile hike with 2995 ft of elevation.   Plenty of up and down with a very misty start.   The woods were very slippery under foot and at times it was hard to see where the path was or even if there was a path.   Some climbing under and over trees.   In Clovelley the villagers receive their supplies via sledges which are kept at the top of the village.

Getting Ready for the Off

Sunday 15th Jun
The last chance to pack and unpack.   Weigh my kit which with some water is around 14lb.   It's going to be a hot first week so lots of sun cream and a very unfetching hat!
