Mindstep trekkers - Offa's dyke challenge

Today, July 25th, was the start of our incredible journey across the beautiful country of Wales, in which we set out to conquer this incredible feat of fitness and exploration. We started our all the way down in Agincourt square, Monmouth. Celebrating the start of a great week ahead with the main man Charles Royce before boarding the bus across country to the quaint town of Bodfari where 6 became 7 and the challenge officially began. We trekked up to Prestatyn along high hills all the way down to the calm coasts; we all remained in high spirits with great tunes and treats along the way and are all pumped up ready for what lies ahead. A solid 12+miles dominated and just under 100 more to go along the rest of the week. Hope your enjoy some of the pics from our travels and we'd like to thank you again for all the support so far. Gonna go enjoy a nice meal in Rhyl now and will keep you all posted on our progress tomorrow Hwyl - Trekkers Support us here

Hello everyone,  From the 25th to the 30th July 2021, eight determined Trekkers will begin the pilgrimage along the 177 miles of Offa’s Dyke, starting in Prestatyn and walking to Chepstow.  The group hope to raise significant funds for the Mindstep Foundation which provides support, help and research for mental health initiatives.   The particular focus for this challenge will be to help fund a school wellbeing centre as the group trek the 109 miles from Prestatyn to Hay on Wye.  Offa’s Dyke crosses the mountainous Welsh Marches and was built in 790BC by king Offa of Mercia to keep the Welsh in Wales. It is the longest man made earthwork in the UK by some distance. Bring it on!! Thank you for your wonderful support and donations and for those wishing to donate to help support this incredible cause, please find the just giving campaign below and help give the children the support they need.
