The idea to walk the entire coast of Great Britain has been brewing in my mind for many years. As a kid I loved going to the seaside and life as a touring musician has enabled me to take in some jaw-dropping coastal scenery, bustling ports, and historic industrial areas. Realising that I could create an opportunity to raise money for HelpMusiciansUK—a charity that has helped some of my friends and family in the past—has given me the impetus to propel my dream into reality!
