Hi Sharon,
Just thought I'd send you a line to wish you well for your forthcoming marathon adventure in August. That is just one helluva journey and will be really gruelling but I believe that the moment that you cross that finishing line, you will think it so worth while.
I work with a charity called Promise Dreams which raises money for seriously and terminally ill children and so I appreciate only too well how dependent charities are on the amazing spirit of people like you who stop at nothing to raise much needed funds.
NABD do a fantastic job and whilst I don't know too much about Wiz Kids, those wheelchairs must cost a fortune to produce and adapt so every penny will help.
I understand from Bob that your daughter Jess will be there with the navigation so hope the Tom Tom application works well.
What you are going to do is brilliant - good luck to you every bit of the way and do let us know how it all goes.
Love and Best Wishes
Suzi Perry xx
