Summary

Welcome to the Cornish Family Coast to Coast Challenge – an 180 miles cross country walk that will take us from St Bees, Cumbria to Robin Hood's Bay, North Yorkshire. Mum, Dad, 5 kids (age 4 - 12 yrs old) and a grandad (72 and counting) will 'walk a mile in the shoes' of families who have been displaced through war, famine, fear or persecution. Over 16 days (come rain, shine or blisters), we will peak mountains, traverse valleys and hike through moor and woods. We’ll be raising money for refugee families who, unlike us, had no choice but to leave their homes – families just like ours and yours.

Our chosen charity, Refugee Action York (RAY), offer practical aid, emotional support and an open door to men, woman, children and families without discrimination. Hear their stories and follow our intrepid journey either online or by our side. In true British style, let us stand (or walk) together in welcoming our newest countrymen to England’s green and pleasant land.

Malham Cove (New best walk ever) - Saturday 17th June


10 miles of beauty!


Words cannot describe how amazing this walk was.  But 7 hours later we arrived at the car still smiling.  

Have a look...











             

           

(Above L.) Caving along Malham Lings.

(Above R.) Limestone Pavement - You know...from the Harry Potter movie.

(Left) Down Malham Cove to see the Peregrin's home towering above.






Swimming at Janet's Foss.                                                                                   Yes...it WAS that cold!
 
Scrambling up Gordale Scar.                                                                                    (spot the child)
                                                                             
There was no stopping us until...                                                                             A well earned rest.

THE END!
