Marg Davies' Solo 100 Mile Charity Walk 2024
In the end of April I’ll be
embarking on my 2024 solo charity walk. It’ll be my 11th year and
I’ll be doing my walk in Wales, returning to my home-county, to walk around
& between the castles & fortifications of South Pembrokeshire. I’m
planning to complete my 100 miles between Thursday 25th April 2024
and Thursday 2nd May 2024.

Each year my supporters amaze
and humble me with their generosity and again I’m raising funds for two
charities. The first is the Women’s Royal Army Corps Association, the only
veteran’s charity set up specifically to cater for the needs of female
veterans. Females are often the forgotten ‘heroes’ - forgotten by society in
general but also frequently under-resourced by ‘Veteran’ society as well. The
WRAC Association gives not only financial support to female army veterans but
also provides emotional support to a section of our community that often
suffers isolation and loneliness. The WRAC Association is a safe haven where
female veterans can find the support and friendship that is often all that is
required to overcome their difficulties.  |

My second charity is a local
Pembrokeshire charity, the V C Gallery, CEO Barry John MBE who served 20 years
as a soldier and set up the charity to combat loneliness and social isolation
for veterans & community. As a veteran myself I am only too aware of how
fortunate I am and how difficult and lonely it can be to transition from
military to civilian life. You can support me and my two charities by clicking

This year I am returning to
my usual plan of starting at point A (near Amroth Castle) & finishing, 8
days later, at point B (Lawrenny Quay) I hope to be able to call in to the VC
Gallery, Pembroke Dock on the 7th day.
