All charities are really struggling these days and I 100 per cent understand how hard it is to chose which ones to support. Lady and I are doing this challenge to raise awareness of Bone Cancer Research Trust who are working so hard to find a cure. They desperately need funds to continue with the research, so please help us reach our target of £150. Thank you for reading.

We added another 5km to our target today for Canter For a Cure. Little by little we're getting there. 🙂

Hi everyone
First and foremost a heartfelt THANK YOU for following.
Secondly my apologies for so few updates but 2026 has been a year of changes and adapting lifestyle to manage health problems.
My hearts desire is still to do long distance trail ride on Lady and I won't give up aiming for that.
Bone Cancer Research Trust is close to my heart and raising its awareness and adding to Kens Tribute Fund, to help the research is priority.
I have signed up to a fundraiser riding Lady, over the next few weeks. This will help strengthen my muscles and assertaine daily energy levels.
I'm going to update this page with how we do so I hope you stick with us and enjoy being part of our journey.

Thanks again for hanging on in there with us.

Have a blessed day everyone.

Lady and Jules x x

Well this year hasn't gone at all the way I'd planned and I've been gutted that haven't been able to progress with the plans, and do the trail ride YET. But in amongst all the hurdles and disappointment, I have been blessed with a place to live that having a very positive impact on my day to day life. Lady has settled very well into her new home so we're both in better situations to get on with raising awareness and funds for BCRT.

I have decided to join one of BCRT Organised fund raises to kick start Lady and I into resuming training for the trail ride and I will share details as soon as I have done fb page for it. This will NOT be instead of the trail ride.

Thank you everyone who still in this with us. Your ongoing interest means so much.

God bless you all and I look forward to posting often as we prep and do BCRT fundraiser.

After delays and changes in Lady's livery location, I now working on the revised route for this year's Trail Ride. Podiatrist and Physiotherapist visits to her have helped massively with prep for it. I will post the route once finalised, but what I can say is it's longer than the original Cornwall to Sussex. Also my grand daughter will be riding as much of it with me as she can. (Work commitments).
The location of Lady's livery in Sussex is perfect for getting us both well prepared. Thanks for all your patience. Lady, Jez and I can now really get into planning and preparing. All will be to raise awareness of Bone Cancer Research Trust and add to Kens Tribute Fund. Watch this space. 🙂🙂🐎🐎

My apologies for no recent updates. Lady is settling really well in her new home in Sussex. My grand daughter and I will be riding the trail ride together which is a Huge blessing.
Have a couple of possible routes in mind and once decided which one, I will share.
I have in mind to do mileage I couldn't do in 2018 when walking Southwest Coastal path. Thats when my knees let me down and subsequently diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis.
I'll keep you posted.
Thanks again for following which really helps keep me focused.
God bless you all. 🙏♥️

Starting to narrow down route to take. Briefly at the moment thinking of either Pulborough to Romsey, (New Forest) and back or East to Eastbourne and back. But as we are close to Southdowns Way, I not sure its going to be challenging enough. Obviously every mile, whatever the terrain will challenge me due to health issues, but a big part of Cornwall to Sussex was so many challenges with different terrains etc. Anyone have any thoughts on it? Or has anyone ridden South Downs way so knows if its a big challenge?
