The 90 mile men!

After three solid days of walking, Autism Ambassador Alex Rowley and dad Tony have completed their 90 mile trek around central, east and south-east London.  Their target was the Hadrian's Wall virtual challenge, which plots the 90 mile route along the legendary landmark in the north of England,

And with Autism Awareness Week being upon us, Alex and his father decided to tackle to route in three 30 mile walks on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week, all to raise money for the Sycamore Trust.  They crossed the finish line back in east London just before 5pm on Thursday, looking forward to a rest over the Easter weekend!

Their efforts have taken in some famous London landmarks, such as Smithfield Market, Canary Wharf and the Cutty Sark and it was all done in glorious weather.  Alex and hid dad have raised almost £500 for Sycamore Trust and their fund raising page is still open.  To donate, click here; https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/AlexRowley3
