Hadrians Wall 2023. East to West. Five days of plodding with friends. Seeing the villages, towns and managed to see Newcastle for a few beers a huge bag of chips and gravy.

Hadrian’s Wall is more than a gentle walk. There are loads of places to visit and learn all about the UK’s relationship with warriors and walls.

Supporting nature on Exmoor

This fund should nestle in for many land owners across Exmoor.

I’m interested in working with anyone that wishes to Explorer opportunities for blind people on Exmoor.

Hadrians Wall August 2026. A statement that Hadrian must of said when he started building his wall! “Sometimes we need to believe in ourselves and simply do what we want too. “

Duke of Edinburgh update.

Three years of planning

Out of Covid and everything expedition wise was dormant. Young people just want to sit and play games.That was what we were told in everything we read or saw.

This weekend, I leave Devon for Cumbria and the epic Wall that I seem to have a magnet for, Hadrian's Wall. This is my fourth time!

I leave with two minibuses packed with 17 over 16 year olds, 3 leaders, 1 assessor following in a car and my trusted Guide Dog, Teal!

The 17 young people have raised over 50% of the costs via several pub quizzes, church hall tea and cake, a sponsored walk and generous donations.

We even did a radio interview!

The 3 teams have completed an expedition on Dartmoor, with a Wild Camp in a storm. For some it was their first time on South Dartmoor.

The purpose of this short post is to thank everyone that has donated, been there for the young people when needed and most of all believed in the process. I will add updates to my socials.

There are many layers of success stories behind this expedition and any parent reading this and wondering how to help change their child's life.

I am planning to repeat this again, starting with Bronze in 2027. I’m part of the North Devon Scout District, not a school and we actually don’t sing dib dib dib.

Get in touch.

Trust the process!

Stopping is important, right? Teal and I found this sweet spot on a bench near Ilfracombe and the South West Coastal Path. We pretty much have it to ourselves if we time it perfectly.
