I'm Walking 35km for Roxie

I’m walking 35km in The Bloody Long Walk for Roxie Williams alongside her mum, Claire. Together we are team Roxie!

Roxie is in the same class as my son Harris at school. She is a lovely, sweet and often misunderstood soul. 
She has mitochondrial disease which is a rare and relentless illness that robs the body’s cells of energy. It can affect anyone, at any age, and can lead to multi-organ failure.

Claire and I are walking side by side as friends, as parents, and as part of Team Roxie.

That’s 35km in one day, over 46,000 steps.
Yes, we’ll be sore, blistered, and tired…. but that’s nothing compared to what families like Roxie’s face every day.

We’re walking to fund research into desperately needed treatments and cures for mitochondrial disease.

Every dollar helps. Every step counts.

This walk will be bloody tough but with your support it will be so worth it.

Thank you.
