James takes on an Ultra Challenge 2021

So last year I was meant to be doing the Thames Path Ultra Challenge (100k from Fulham to Henley) but due to some global pandemic it got cancelled! I'm pleased to say I'm attempting it again this year (despite having a minor setback of damaged ligaments from a badly twisted ankle earlier in the year) and am raising money for New Hope Counselling - a counselling agency based in Warwick, Stratford-upon-Avon & Kenilworth that seeks to offer affordable counselling to everyone in South Warwickshire who needs it. They have been working tirelessly throughout the pandemic, having to swiftly move to remote working and making sure everyone who was willing and comfortable with it was able to do it safely - not easy with a team of nearly 40 counsellors! More information about the work they do can be found on their website www.newhopecounselling.org.uk
