Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am joining a group of like minded friends to replicate the 1982 yomp across the Falkland Islands, famously undertaken by 45 Commando during the liberation of the Falkland Islands. The yomp is a physically demanding 121km trek across difficult terrain consisting of peat bog, tussock grass and rock in winds typically in excess of 20 mph. We will set off from San Carlos Bay on the west coast of East Falkland on 9th February, arriving in Stanley around 5 days later. We will camp out and use sheepsheds and outhouses for overnight rest. Whilst nothing can truly replicate the hardships and difficulty experienced by our armed forces in liberating the islands, the expedition is still a unique challenge and I hope that you will do what you can to support this excellent charity.
