I'm walking miles on Sunday 4 October to change young lives!

At a time where almost a million young people in the UK are out of work, The King’s Trust are committed to ending youth unemployment, and I’m doing my part by taking on Palace to Palace! I’ve challenged myself to walk a half marathon across London and raise funds to help young people get into work.

The King's Trust (formerly known as The Prince’s Trust) is a youth charity providing long-term support and tailored programmes that empower young people across the UK to transform their lives. Every penny raised will help break down barriers, open doors and support young people to build the confidence and skills they need to find work.

Please help me support The King's Trust by sponsoring my Palace to Palace challenge and sharing my page to double the impact. A donation of £26 could cover the cost of travel for an isolated young person to attend a one-week King’s Trust course, helping them build vital skills and gain valuable work experience.

My Why

Monday 7th Sep
After breaking my left big toe in April, I wasn't expecting my next fitness challenge to involve 13 miles of walking. At the time, I'd only recently started getting into jogging and was enjoying building my fitness when the injury brought those plans to an abrupt halt.

Since then, long walks and hikes have been off the agenda while I've focused on recovery. This meant that the injury limited what we could do on our holiday to Alaska in June. I had to buy walking shoes that were two sizes bigger to accommodate the swelling, and I still managed to explore, albeit with a limp!

Now that my toe is finally on the mend, taking on The King's Trust 13-mile challenge feels like the perfect way to continue moving and mark an important milestone in my rehabilitation. It will certainly be a challenge, especially after several months without tackling a long-distance walk, but that's exactly what makes it worthwhile.

Most importantly, I'm taking part to support The King's Trust and the incredible work they do helping young people build brighter futures.
