We are walking 280km from Porto to Santiago de Compostela to raise funds for Clic Sargent in the UK and Bosom Buddies Cancer Trust in Gibraltar.
135 years on the camino! Over the last few years Ana Maria and I have been enjoying a number of long distance walks at home and abroad. The most memorable of these was the "Walk for William" in 2010 when she and I walked the entire length of Spain, a distance of over 1600km. Apart from the enormous fun we had doing these we also raised funds for cancer charities in the UK and Gibraltar, which to d
ate have totalled close to £20,000! This year on 15th September we are going to walk a more modest 280km from Porto to Santiago de Compostela, following the Camino de Santiago pilgrim route. Our combined ages total 135 years and we would like to raise ten times that sum and divide this between two charities, Clic Sargent in the UK and Bosom Buddies Cancer Trust in Gibraltar. Consequently we are aiming for a modest £675.00 in each case and hope you will be kind enough to support us in trying to achieve this. Details of the charities and how to donate can be found below.
