Sisters with Blisters - SheUltra 50km Hike

Sister with Blisters

Hi, we're Sally, Vanessa & Dee and we're hiking 50km in a female-only ultra to raise money for The APF so they can continue to support pregnant and postnatal women. The route will take us through some of the most beautiful countryside in Wales. The Llyn Peninsular is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, but we're sure when we're 40km into our walk we won't be quite so excited about taking in the views!

About The APF

In 2020, an incredible group of passionate women, including 'Blister Sister' Sally, set up the Active Pregnancy Foundation, we wanted to tackle the health inequalities faced by women in the UK today, particularly around support and advice about being active during and after pregnancy.

We know that many women still don't receive advice or guidance and therefore miss out on the huge benefits an active pregnancy can have on physical and mental health. This can also have a long term impact on their health and wellbeing, as well as the health of their children. We want to change that, and so the APF was born!

The charity trains healthcare and fitness professionals, and provides evidence-based guidance to women and their partners. With approx. 600k pregnancies every year in the UK it's a huge mountain to climb, but we're ready to climb it!

Check out the charity and all the incredible work it does to improve the health of women and their families across the UK.
