A COASTWALKER raising money for charity is celebrating this week after finally walking to all four corners of the UK.
Jim Morton, 61, from Penistone, set off on his epic journey from his home in April last year to raise funds for the Gurkha Welfare Trust, and has now raised £21,600 for the cause.
On Tuesday, day 450 of his challenge, Jim left Land’s End in Cornwall having after walking 7,215 miles so far.
He’s joined by his wife Sue and their two dogs - who are in charge of PR and security on their travels, Jim said.
“I’ve worn out six pairs of boots now, and Sue’s getting the hang of driving our van around the little lanes down here.
“I’ll move onto North Cornwall next, Devon, Somerset, Avon, the whole of Wales, and then another three days walk from the coast to my home in Penistone.”
