Hopefully many of you will be aware of the inspiring story of Geraldine, who thought about walking to Rome - and then went and just did it, raising money for charities Mary's Meals and Dementia Research.

I'm delighted to say that Geraldine has kindly agreed to come through and talk to us about her journey and I for one am really looking forwards to this.
