The Blick Rothenberg Jersey Walk 15 years on from the first Blick Rothenberg Jersey Walk, six colleagues (Andrew Sanford, Heather Powell, Paul Haywood-Schiefer, Katharine Campbell, Darsh Shah and Dharma-Dev Morzaria) took on the 50-mile walk around the beautiful and at times treacherous coastline of Jersey. They were raising money for the The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity and The Connection at St Martin-in-the-Fields at St Martin’s in memory of two former colleagues; Linda Bute and Mike Scoltock who both passed away from cancer and were part of the first Jersey Walk fifteen years ago. We are beyond grateful for everyone’s generosity and thanks to you all we have been able to raise over £10,000 for two amazing causes.
