Carer Louise is walking the Wall for Charlotte Straker

We’re incredibly proud to announce that our very own care assistant, Louise Richardson is taking on a monumental challenge to raise money for our residents.
On 20th June this year Louise will be attempting to walk the entire length of Hadrian’s Wall – that’s a whopping 84 miles – in just 24 hours! She will be leaving Wallsend very early on Thursday and plans to arrive at the western end of the Wall very late on Friday 21st June. She told us “I’ve worked at Charlotte Straker House for a short while, but I’ve seen how important our charity is to our residents. My sister told me she was doing the Hadrian’s Wall Walk and I decided it was a great opportunity to raise funds – I want to raise money for the newly opened community respite bed and activities for the residents. It will definitely be hard work to walk all that way in 24 hours but I’m already training and I’m just praying for good weather!” We will definitely be cheering Louise on every step of the way!
