Hip! Hip! Hooray Marion’s 50 walk Challenge

Following two successful hip replacements and a newfound freedom, I’m giving myself a walking challenge.

Since retirement I have become a trustee of the Batemans Trust, which supports children in South India.

Due to the pandemic some of our usual fundraising sources have been put on hold, so to help compensate I’m taking on 50 different walks AND hopefully some of you will sponsor me!

Each walk will be at least 5km (3 miles) and must be different either because of the route or the company. Suggestions for routes or offers to join me are most welcome.

My target is to raise at least £500 by completing my challenge between 21st July and the end of September.

To document my challenge I will be writing a blog about each walk, giving an idea of distance, routes and possibly maps or photos.

Please read about the work of the Trust, in Chennai, by following the link above and help me to provide opportunities through my challenge.
