I (Meleri) will be taking part in the Ultra Challenge 100km walk on the Gower to raise money for Cegin Hedyn.

Cegin Hedyn is a place to belong, where meals are shared, friendships bloom, and community thrives.

The Gower Peninsula is the original UK Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – and an amazing setting for an Ultra Challenge. Penrice Castle, dating back to Norman times, is the basecamp. It’s a ‘figure of 8’ route made up of 50 km west & 50km east loops which take in the best of the stunning landscape – from golden beaches & dramatic cliffs to saltmarsh & sand dunes, with ancient woodlands inland – and a wide diversity of wildlife.

The challenge will start at 7am on Saturday 19th July, and I anticipate to finish sometime late afternoon on Sunday, 20th July. Fingers crossed!
