We will be arriving in Brighton around 4pm on today with over 40 walkers supporting me which is fantastic. I would love to see as many of you there as possible as I have missed you all. The Big Beach Cafe are laying on a BBQ and Brighton’s Juice 107.2 – Radio Made in Brighton will be broadcasting live from 3pm, it’s going to be emotional!”
