Completed in 7 days, 19 hours & 25 minutes! Click here to view photos and an account of the walk On May 24th 2008, Ben Mills and Gemma Miller will be embarking on a 190 mile walk from Robin Hood's Bay on the East coast of Britain to St. Bee's Head on the West. The route passes through the North Yorkshire Moors, Yorkshire Dales and Lake District, and features 16,300 feet of elevation. We will be supported by a fully vegan diet throughout the walk (and training), and whilst it is usually completed in around 2 weeks we are aiming to reach the end within 8 days. We are undertaking this challenge to raise money for St. Francis Animal Welfare, an animal shelter located in Fair Oak, Hampshire (registered charity number 263172). Formed in 1953, they take in both domestic and wild animals and look after them until they can be placed with loving homes or released back into the wild. It is their policy to never put a healthy animal down. Please sponsor us on our trek, every penny raised will go directly to St. Francis Animal Welfare and enable them to care for many sick, injured or unwanted animals in need of help. All sponsors will be entered into a prize draw (which will now be held at the St. Francis Animal Welfare Open Day in September) for a chance to win some great prizes, including a box of Hazelnut Crunch Truffles from Booja-Booja, selection of raw chocolate bars from Total Raw Food, £20 cake voucher from Blue Lotus Products, £25 Redwoods voucher, £25 worth of organic goodies from Cooks' Delight, £25 gift voucher from Mungo Deli, £20 gift voucher from Majik Blanket, £20 gift voucher from Ethika Boutique, £20 worth of Vegtalia products, £15 gift voucher from Gossypium, 2 £10 gift vouchers from Lucy Rose, Suma goodies including organic beer and other alcohol, olive oil, pasta sauces, coffee & fruit juice, signed Gillian McKeith books, selection of juices from James White Drinks, a week's supply of RDA Organic drinks for a child and their classmates, bottle of Fair Trade wine, Juniper Green Organic Gin, jute bag of Ecover products, gift set from Green People, wind up radio from Ethical Superstore and a murder mystery DVD game from Find Me A Gift, as well as many others!
