1 The Malcolm Whales Foundation DORSET WALK INFORMATION PACK
2 Malcolm Whales was only 55 years old when he died Malcolm was my Dad; he was a very active man who always lived life to its fullest Unfortunately when he was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer, there had been no obvious signs By the time he received his prognosis, the cancer had spread throughout his body, meaning he never really stood a fighting chance Anybody that has been affected by Cancer will understand the utter devastation that it leaves The impact on my life has been beyond measure! I am desperate to honour my father s memory and create something positive from my personal tragedy Before my father s death in 2008, he had got involved in endurance challenges and in particular long distance walks I decided to create a walk in his name, the only problem, would teenagers want to go on a walk? In 2009 we organised the first Dorset Walk along the South West Coastal path Never in my wildest dreams did I expect it to be the success it has been! We started with 30 students in 2009, raising 6000 By the end of 2015 we had over 100 walkers and we had raised over 100,000 The Malcolm Whales Foundation is something that makes me incredibly proud; its success has been mind blowing We are raising large amounts of money annually and we are supporting some incredible causes Perhaps though, the most rewarding part has been the impact on the participants lives We have given them an introduction to charitable causes and the positive difference they can make It is safe to say that every single participant has been challenged and by taking part, have developed as people! Its impact has been enormous! We are still a very young charity We want to get bigger, better and impact wider We need your support as a walker, a sponsor or in any way you can Please get involved and support an unbelievably positive cause! Both my family and I would personally like to thank you in advance for your support Damien Whales Chairman of The Malcolm Whales Foundation
3 THE DORSET WALK The Dorset Walk is an annual fundraising event, covering over 40 miles along the Dorset coastline The event runs over three days, starting at Weymouth Seafront and finishing at Studland Bay Interesting Facts Nickname The Jurassic Coastline Distance 40 Miles The Dorset Walk first started in 2009, with 28 participants, and has grown ever since, with 120 participants walking the coastal path in 2015 The amount raised over this seven year period has amassed to an amazing 100,000, and with your help, 2016 can be an even bigger and better year Total Estimated Walking Time 21 Hours Total Vertical Distance Covered (Ascending & Descending) 18,101 Feet
4 DAY 1 - WEYMOUTH TO LULWORTH COVE BRIEF OVERVIEW The start of The Malcolm Whales Foundation Dorset Walk begins from the picturesque Weymouth seafront, where the walk starts along the seafront promenade The walk then starts to ascend and descend over cliffs, passing secluded beaches and coves towards Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove The first few miles of this day are relatively flat or have very gradual inclines, which helps each participants get into the swing of things However, as we embark on the last 6 miles of the walk, the steep hills are there to be endured, but with this comes some stunning views Key Facts Distance 122 Miles Estimated Walking Time 6 Hours 30 Minutes Vertical Height Covered Ascending 2,424 Feet Descending 2,493 Feet
5 DAY 2 - LULWORTH COVE TO WORTH MATRAVERS BRIEF OVERVIEW The second day of The Malcolm Whales Foundation Dorset Walk begins from Lulworth Cove, where the walk commences with a lovely stroll around the cove on the beach The coastal path website describes this walk as 'an isolated stretch of the path which offers some spectacular views, but be prepared for some difficult walking right from the beginning' The highest climb on this day is Houns-tout Cliff, which stands at 490 feet above sea level, which is at the very end of the days walking Key Facts Distance 127 Miles Estimated Walking Time 7 Hours Vertical Height Covered Ascending 3,277 Feet Descending 3,645 Feet
6 DAY 3 - WORTH MATRAVERS TO STUDLAND BAY BRIEF OVERVIEW The final day of The Malcolm Whales Foundation Dorset Walk begins from the middle of nowhere (Worth Matravers), where the walk commences along the cliffs This section of the walk is the most straightforward, due to the large gradients being replaced by picturesque scenery and some of the more popular tourist places including Durlston Head and Swanage Studland Bay is 53 miles away from Swanage, with gradual ascending and descending leading us to the finish line, where there is a souvenir shop and places to eat Key Facts Distance 151 Miles Estimated Walking Time 7 Hours 30 Minutes Vertical Height Covered Ascending 3,307 Feet Descending 2,955 Feet
7 Dorset Walk Reviews What do people have to say about The Dorset Walk? "The walk inspires others, raises money and awareness for a great cause, challenges people, educates students and it is an amazing opportunity to have fun, make friends and get fit It was one of the best experiences of my life" The walk had its ups and downs (literally), but by challenging yourself to overcome the toughness of the walk, it is a great skill to learn, especially for us year 11 s, preparing for the transition to sixth forms, apprenticeships and employment "The Dorset walk is a unique trip because not only does it benefit a really good cause, it also allows character building As individuals can test their abilities and push through mental and physical barriers which they wouldn't get the opportunity to test in everyday life" The fundraising really drove people to push the extra mile For myself, the feeling that I was helping a charity as I walked gave me the confidence to carry on" "Firstly, the trip is extremely fun and it was an experience I will cherish and never forget The trip is very rewarding as you know you are doing a good deed by raising money for charity" "She challenged herself enormously on the walk as it was harder than she imagined! She seemed to come home a foot taller, full of enthusiasm for the task that she had completed and proud of the money that she had raised And even though it was challenging on so many levels, she is keen to go again next year"
