I'm walking miles to change young lives
On Sunday 5th October, I will be taking part in The Palace Walk. I will be walking 13.1 miles around Windsor to help young people create a better future for themselves.
The King's Trust has tailored programmes and provides long-term support give young people the practical skills and emotional resilience to pick themselves back up and create their own positive futures.
Following a cost of living crisis and pandemic which impacted their education, early careers and wellbeing, there are now almost 1 million young people not currently in work, education or training, equivalent to the third largest city in the UK. At The Trust we know the devastating impact of unemployment on young people’s mental health, broader wellbeing, and confidence in achieving their aspirations in life.
Please help me to support The King's Trust by sponsoring my Palace Walk and sharing my page. Just a £20 donation could provide a young person with an experienced youth worker for an hour, building their confidence, resilience and motivation during this time.

Leadership Team supporting Young Futures on The Palace Walk
Sunday 7th SepI will be joining my leadership team to take on The Palace Walk, a 13-mile route through the historic and scenic landmarks of Windsor.
We are walking in support of The King’s Trust, a charity I feel passionate about. The Trust works with young people aged 11–30 to help them build confidence, gain skills, and move into work, education, or training. In the last five years alone, three in four of those supported have achieved positive outcomes. Since its founding in 1976, more than one million young people have had their lives transformed by the Trust. As someone whose professional focus is on people and culture, this mission resonates profoundly with me. It’s about unlocking potential, building resilience, and creating opportunities—values that sit at the heart of what I do every day.
Completing The Palace Walk as a leadership team feels especially meaningful. It’s an opportunity to demonstrate leadership through action, showing that our commitment to supporting potential extends beyond the everyday as a team.
I would love to raise at least £150, and every pound directly helps young people—whether it’s covering the cost of a bus ticket to a first job interview, providing access to essential courses, or enabling the confidence to take that crucial next step. For me, it’s a fundraising target; for them, it’s a chance to change the trajectory of their lives.
I would love for you to support, if you can spare a little to sponsor our walk, share our story - your generosity will go even further—helping The King’s Trust continue its incredible work with the next generation.
Thank you so much
