AN accountant from Lulsley, near Malvern, is setting out today (Friday, September 10) on a 192-mile walk across Britain from coast to coast.
Ian Smith is undertaking the challenge to raise money for the fight against cerebellar ataxia, a rare neurological disease that his wife Lit [correct] suffers from.
He is due to start today from St Bee's Head in Cumbria, and, all being well, finish at Robin Hood's Bay, Yorkshire, in 13 days' time.
