Charities

On this (what we expect to be) 2 month journey. If we do a consistent 15 miles a day everyday, there are 3 charities that we would like to raise money for and they are:

1. Ataxia UK

2. Butterfly Thyroid Cancer Trust

3. CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably)

(All proceeds will be donated to these charities equally)

Get to know us

My name is Lucas Schofield. I was diagnosed with Friedrichs Ataxia when I was 15, I am now 22. In short its a genetic, progressive, neurodegenerative movement disorder. My body may be shutting down but my mindset has never been stronger. For character building, for charity, for the experience, for the good and the bad, I intend to push myself as much as I can to achieve as much as I can whilst enjoying as much of this feat as I can. For it to be in service of myself and hopefully others. 

My name is Daniel Stott. My story is not nearly as motivating or impressive. I've always had a love for the outdoors and a good physical challenge. I have completed challenges such as The Yorkshire Three Peaks, cycled the Coast to Coast on three seperate occasions and others. Its an honour to help my friend achieve his goal of pushing himself the complete length of the UK. Its my job to help Lucas get up the nastiest climbs and carry all the equipment necessary. In short I am Samwise and Lucas is Frodo.
