SGT Charity Adventure
After our successful year raising more than £20k for the charity by thru-hiking from Dunnet Head to Lizards Point via John o' Groats to Lands End, we have set off again on an even bigger and more challenging adventure.
We are so excited that at last we can tell you what we have planned for the start of 2023, and we think its epic!
On Monday the 23rd of January 2023 Eve and I set off on a 1900-mile backpacking adventure, to thru-hike all 29 of the Scotland's Great Trails.
This time we will be supporting and fundraising for Scottish Autism
We had only had a few weeks to plan this one, because Eve changed her mind at the final hour from our original choice...
Scotland's Great Trails
Scotlands Great Trails will take us all over Scotland, where we will be hiking some of the most challenging terrain, through some of the most magnificent scenery that Scotland has to offer.
It will not be easy and we will face emotional, mental, physical and practical challenges along the way, but with your help and support, I know we will can succeed!
You can read more about the Scotland's Great Trails on there website here.
Scottish Autism
On our Scottish adventure we will be raising awareness of autism, challenging stereotypes and stigmas around neurodiversity, and fundraising for Scottish Autism. You can read more about Scottish Autism on their website here;

Our Autism Story
As some of you already know, both Eve and I are autistic, having received a formal diagnosis through the NHS Scotland.
Together we also represent two under represented groups within the neurodiverse community; young girls and late diagnosed adults.
The challenges autism presents us, as well as the often overlooked impact this has on Sarah, is all hidden behind closed doors.
With our 2023 charity adventure we want to open the doors and share with you our struggles in a raw and unfiltered way, whilst demonstrating our strengths as both individuals and a family.
If you would like to support us on our journey this would be absolutely amazing and we honestly can’t thank you enough.
Please support us!
