As all those who know me are aware, animals, but in particular cats, have provided me with a welcome & necessary contrast to the stresses and strains of the business environment that I have been involved in. Fun, caring, intelligent and sentient beings but many of whom sadly are left on the street or ill-treated.

The Yorkshire Cat Rescue does a fantastic job of rehabilitating and homing these innocent creatures and so I have decided to complete the Cleveland Way over 8 days in late June to raise money for this wonderful charity. https://yorkshirecatrescue.org/

Hopefully the weather holds and does not make this arduous slog more difficult!
