#MiniJurassicgirl is walking 12km on @RamblersGB trail today to raise money for @WaterAidUK. We are on our way to start, she is pumped & excited to help children have clean water and toilets 😃

We are walking over 2 hillforts and across the Dorset countryside. It's tough, long and we are behind her, supporting her all the way!

First leg, she has to get up the steep hillside of Hambledon Hill, part of @nationaltrust. A really impressive iron age hillfort! @NTSouthWest #saritawalks4wateraid #walkinwinter #ramblersambassador #ramblers

And we made it! At the top of Hambledon Hill, gorgeous views across beautiful Dorset 😍 #saritawalks4wateraid #ramblersambassador #ramblers

Coming down Hambledon Hill now and preparing for our next steep Hillfort climb Hod Hill 😳😀 The day is glorious! #ramblersambassador #ramblers #saritawalks4wateraid

Exhausted! We have nearly reached the top of Hod Hill looked after by @NTSouthWest. She is earning the £ for every km walked, trust me! #saritawalks4wateraid A bag of sweets helped 😁😅

Approaching 5k now. Beautiful views over lunch at the top of Hod Hill. Now a stunning walk along a stream & a chance to trail a stick in the water! #saritawalks4wateraid #ramblersambassador #ramblers

We have reached 6.7km, a halfway point 😀 Beautiful views of the River Stour as we cross this bridge 😍 Sarita's gear, walking boots by @Superfit, cotton top by @MountainWHouse, @FatFace cap from older brother 😆 #saritawalks4wateraid #ramblers #ramblersambassador

Things are really tough now. Sarita had a bit of a sit down & 😪, really achy legs. We had a pep talk abt all the children who will have clean water @WaterAidUK - back on feet for the final 2k! She can do this 😀 Thx for all your support, it helps! #saritawalks4wateraid

This is such a beautiful walk mapped by the @RamblersGB. Its challenging but great for the soul. Every child should gave access to nature & clean water to be healthy and fit ☺ That's why #saritawalks4wateraid 🚶‍♀️🙂

And she did it! 12.5km across two huge hillforts, walking across the beautiful Dorset landscape raising money for @WaterAidUK 😃 Thx for all the support, donations & msgs. What a brilliant #EasterSunday, now to relax! 😊 #saritawalks4wateraid Route courtesy of @RamblersGB

You may be wondering why we did not publicise this walk for charity. I was really concerned abt the pressure & expectation she would feel, so we just launched it on the day of the walk. Me & JurassicDad are so proud of Sarita 🥰 #saritawalks4wateraid #walkchallenge #ramblers
