I have walked with family, friends and alone; each were special in different ways. Family – this was something wonderful to share, and in years to come we will have built memories together. Friends – I have never laughed so much despite the baking sun or thick relentless mud. Alone – it felt amazingly liberating, calming and rewarding.
In this guest blog, Vi shares her decision to fundraise whilst walking the SWCP over a 4-year period, altogether raising £20,000.
I must be the first rabbit to have completed the whole path! I set off from Minehead on 30th April 2014 with my mum, Liz Owsley, and her friend Mary Hansell.

Little did I know, as I stood as a “walking rookie” in Minehead in 2009, what a fabulous journey was in front of me.
