Newquay Detachment Commander at Cornwall Army Cadets, Angela Mckendrick, recently completed the 268 mile of the Pennine Way along with 6 veterans to raise money and awareness of Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Although Angela isn’t herself a veteran, she took part in this challenge to support her friends and family who have needed support from organisations such as these in the past.
A few years ago Angela struggled to walk up a hill without getting out of breath, now a little under two years later, she has been walking more than 30k in a single day and inspiring other woman in her local area to put on their walking boots and heading off into the wild.
