🇪🇸 🌟 After 321km Sarah, Carole and Pam have COMPLETED their walk along the Camino Primivito! 🌟 🇪🇸

Walking all the way from Oviedo to Santiago de Compostela, they have experienced just about every terrain and weather condition imaginable!

🥳 Congratulations guys, it’s time to put your feet up with something cold to drink 🍻

They have raised an amazing amount of money for our parent accommodation improvements, currently £1600!

🙌 100km to go for Sarah, Carole and Pam! 🙌
They have made it safely to Lugo in the Galicia region of Spain. They have treated themselves to a much deserved night in a hotel - rumour has it they have sheets and towels tonight!
I’ll spare you the pictures Sarah sent us of her toenails and blisters 😂

Well done guys, we are so cheering you on ❤️

That’s another day of tough hill climbs completed, taking them to O Cádavo. 15 miles today - well over the 100 mile mark now.
Anyone who knows Sarah well enough will be surprised (and pleased) to know she hasn’t tripped and fallen down any hills! 😂

Well done guys, we are so proud of you all 😊

Yesterday and today’s update from Sarah and team 🫶🏼

Yesterday they walked 10 miles, mostly uphill, and today it has been very challenging because of the heat but they still managed an amazing 9 miles from Tineo to Comporiella 🇪🇸

Look at tonight’s stunning accommodation!

Sarah’s Just Giving page stands at over £1300 now and it is going towards improving our parent accommodation on SCBU ☺️
