And….. he’s off! Jerome Carson, age 67 and a professor at the University of Bolton, starts his 185-mile journey from the MedEquip4Kids offices in Manchester to Walsingham in Norfolk. The walk is raising an amazing £22,000 for our Hummingbird Project to support children’s mental health and you can still donate here or using the QR code below.
Today Jerome is walking to Chapel-en-le-Frith in Derbyshire. He will be accompanied on the first part of the journey by Ian and Lucy Platt. Ian is the Project Lead for the Hummingbird Project.
Follow us on social media @HummingbirdMH for daily updates on his progress!
