Canyon challenge for Harrogate woman aiming to repay a debt of compassion
Patricia Blenkinsop is aiming to complete a 63km trek across three national parks in five days to support the work of Saint Michaels’ Hospice. The challenge will take place in May and take her across the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon and Zion Canyon.
Setting herself a target of £4,000, or £100 per mile she hopes the fund will help repay staff for the care given to both friends and family.

“Since then, I have been looking for something that I can do to repay some of the kindness, and to help others.
She added: “Your kindness, support and generosity would be extremely appreciated. Thank you.”
