Emma completes walking challenge in memory of friend
A woman who set herself a walking challenge to raise money for the children’s hospice who cared for her schoolfriend has smashed her fundraising target.
Emma, 20, who suffers with chronic fatigue, walked the 13 miles from her home at Emerson’s Green, Bristol to Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW) in Wraxall. Emma, who has Myalagic Encephalomyelitis, broke up the journey into seven sections over 2024, completing the final mile this September.
