Helen Gilchrist of Poles Ahead has recently finished three amazing sponsored challenges… Helen’s first challenge was to walk the 72-mile coastal path of the Isle of Wight. “My second challenge was to Nordic-walk the Jurassic Coast 100km event,” explains Helen, whose personal training company Poles Ahead (www.polesahead.co.uk) covers North Dorset and Somerset. “It was 26 hours of endless hills and only brief stops for food. My third event was to swim the Solent from Hurst Point to Colwell Bay.”
Helen raised £1,325.00 for Mental Health North Dorset Help and Peer Support, which runs peer support groups in Shaftesbury, Gillingham and Sturminster Newton. Find out more at mentalhealthnd.org. The swim event raised another £408 for the West Wight Sports and Community Centre on the Isle of Wight.
