Over £3000 raised - thankyou!

A big thankyou to all who sponsored my trek from Cape Cornwall to Cape Wrath.

Even in the last few days, cheques have still been coming in and the final total is £3110 raised across the four charities supported:

St James Church, Milnrow for youth work: £750
Christian Aid for work on poverty around the world: £830
POPS, a North West charity supporting prisoners' partners and families: £660
John Muir Trust, working to conserve wild lands in Scotland: £870
( plus Gift Aid on some donations)

That's a tremendously generous response from all kinds of people - including friends and family, colleagues at work, church members, community contacts and people as varied as 'bed and breakfast' landladies and a passer-by in a car park. To all of you, thanks again for your generosity and I'm sure the money will be very well used.

If you've not visited the blog recently, you'll find extra photos posted- the first week on the Cornish coast, the Midlands and the last weeks through the Highlands. Do have a look!
