6 days to go!!!


Welcome to the first blog from Roy's Coast to Coast Wheelchair Challenge!!!
It took ages but it's finally here:)

The preparation for the challenge is in full swing - wheelchair's been to service, some of the Trans Pennine Trail has been checked out (yes, there are obstacles and yes, there will be trouble:):):), the fundraising page (www.virginmoneygiving.com/roy215miles) is doing brilliantly - THANK YOU to ALL that donated so generously, I am genuinely humbled. Maps and routes sorted, accomodation booked, remaining muscles to be massaged in the coming week. Toolkit prepared.... now really looking forward to 9.30am, Southport on Saturday.

    Hi Roy!

    I've just found out about your coast to coast challenge, superb stuff! I'm also a wheelchair user and I live in Huddersfield. I run a Community Interest Company (www.experiencecommunity.co.uk) and we make films about access to the countryside for disabled people. We've just received funding to set up a project in Kirklees to organise 'walking groups' for disabled people and I'd love to meet up after your challenge to have a chat about our work and yours with the RSPB.

    Cheers,

    Craig
