A dad's "midlife crisis" will see him walk an incredible 1,200 miles as he pledges to reduce violent crime in the city.
John May, 41, decided to sell his barber shop in Walton and embark on a gruelling adventure which will see him walk from one end of the country to the other. As he worries about a rise in violent crime and the devastating impact on families, he decided to raise funds for a cause close to his heart.
John, who is walking from Lands End in Cornwall to John O'Groats in Scotland with only his trusted backpack in the middle of winter, will also find himself wild camping as he aims to raise £50,000 for CIC Weapons Down Gloves Up.
