I'm walking miles to change young lives
On Sunday 6th 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.
The recent Class of Covid report reveals almost half of young people in the UK (49%) feel anxious about their future on a daily basis, with 59% agreeing it feels frightening for their generation. Findings suggest the impact of the pandemic and now a cost-of-living crisis is taking its toll on young people, as 45% agree anxiety around recent political and economic events affects them daily. More than a third (35%) feel their life is spiralling out of control, and for those from lower income backgrounds, this increases to 41%.
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.

10km practice, Dungeness to Dymchurch
Tuesday 24th Sep With less than 2 weeks until the King's Trust Palace Walk, on my week off I decided to do a little walk. So I decided to jumped on a bus to The Pilot Inn, Dungeness, have a spot of lunch and then walk back to Dymchurch. Beautiful walk, the weather held and it was so nice to walk along the shore listening to the waves and birds. Very peaceful, although my back and hips might disagree now!
First little walk to get fit
