I'm taking part in the Cumbrian Challenge on 16 May 2026 in support of Walking with the Wounded, a charity that helps former service men and women who are struggling after leaving the Armed Forces.
Birketts LLP has supported the Cumbrian Challenge for Walking with the Wounded since 2015 and this is the first time our Bristol office are joining it. I'll be walking as part of a team with Charlotte Coombs and Phil Brown, making us one of the three Bristol teams participating and completing the “Tough” route, which covers approximately 22 km with around 1,140 metres of ascent.
By taking part, we are aiming to raise vital funds to support Walking with the Wounded’s programmes, which help veterans rebuild their independence, wellbeing and sense of purpose. The charity provides practical support to those facing challenges such as mental health difficulties, unemployment and social isolation.
Any donation, large or small, is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your support and encouragement.
