BBC broadcast brings total to £933.76

On Tuesday I went to the studio of BBC Three Counties and talked to Nick Coffer about my walks and about Luton Foodbank.


Mr Coffer was really nice and showed me how he works all his complicated gadgets when he does his show. He talked to me and Dad about Luton Foodbank and about my Ridgeway walk. He said he thinks I might become Prime Minister one day, and he asked what I wanted to do when I grow up. (They cut out my reply where I said I want to open a cheese cake shop! Mr Coffer said I should call it Ricotta Try Some.")

We were told the interview would be broadcast on Friday, but today a lady called Jenny left a message saying she had heard it while she was driving. You can listen to the interview on BBC iPlayer here until 29 October on Soundcloud here.

Before the programme had even finished we had another sponsor (thank you Julie!) Since then, we've had two more (thank you Roger and thank you Jacqueline & Kevin!)

Please share the link above and maybe we can get to £1000 before the giving page ends. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

Latest total: £886.26 (incl. Gift Aid)

Thank you everyone!


While I have been busy enjoying summer holidays and getting ready for going back to school, several more lovely people have sponsored me. (See screenshot below.) The total donated for Luton Foodbank is £755, which makes the total Luton Foodbank has received is £886.26 when Gift Aid is added in. Thank you Annelies, Claire, Maria, Anonymous, Jo, Sarah, Kay, and Veronica. THANK YOU ALL!!!

This is amazing!


It's SO amazing that it means each mile of the Ridgeway was worth over £10.

That means every single mile provided an entire food parcel - paid for by YOU, the lovely sponsors!

I would very much like to raise £10 for each of the 139km of The Ridgeway, meaning that I still have some way to go to reach the target of £1390 before my giving page closes down. PLEASE share my links with all of your friends so that we can help the foodbank get even more people back on their feet.

TO ALL MY SPONSORS AND SUPPORTERS AND TO EVERYONE WHO SHARED A LINK, THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN - YOU ARE SPECIAL PEOPLE! XXX
