Buttermere built it. Wales finished it.
Before this, just a room with no place to grow. Two trips later — friends, a community, and proof I could do anything I put my mind to.
Before coming on Hike2Heal I was isolated in just a room — with no place to grow.
I am forever grateful to be part of a community of like-minded people, supporting me with my every step, and being amongst nature away from the loudness of the city.
Buttermere built the connections
I made some good connections that I still hold to this day. People I now call my friends.
Buttermere helped build those.
Wales finished it
Wales made me realise I could do anything if I put my mind to it — even if I did cry a lot of the way.
But I finished it. With the amazing support from Liz and the rest of the team.
