Why are you doing the #charitychallengewalk ?
So what are the reason behind the Goole to Hull #charitychallengewalk ?
Well lets start with a little background
(We all know who and what Dove house hospice are, and there are hundreds of reason people choice to support them each as unique as it is the same)
It is personal is the short version, cancer has claimed the lives of family members who the hospice cared for in their last months it really is that simple a personal connection to the hospice and it work.
I am going to support Dove house to my last breath or all terminal illness are beaten which ever comes first.
I am proud to make that statement and stand by it with all my might both personally and PROFESSIONALLY. I/we (The company) have been supporting Dove house now activley for over 1 year since late September 2013 blogging, collection tubs etc. And this is a natural STEP UP.
I love walking/hiking so a walking challenge was also a natural way to go about this event.

It is grim up north! NO Wait it is not !
It is grim up north
One question is the North -South Divide real ?
Well put simply yes we all know it does. But looking at it on paper at evidence is it real?
Simple put while people think it is real it will be real to some extent no matter what, but is there more to this than simply the way people think?
Yes
For one thing the south get more per capicta head spent on it on things like infrastructure, a good example is the Thames link, the HS2 proposal all about making getting to London faster.
Take Hull a key UK port city the motorway stops 20 miles out side the city the government (past and present) has taken years just to approve sorting Castle street out and it is not started yet 2017 it is expected to start. And no it does not matter there are more people in the south that is why I am using capicta head to measure like for like.
The North is home to many things:
- Ports/docks (Hull/Immingham/Liverpool/tees port)
- Numerous industrial bases
The south by en large is the UK financial area
By neglecting the North and allowing the North South divide to exisit you negalite the Engine room of the UK.
The problem is in recessions industry suffers and the north is the industrial heart land, but the financial sector caused the last and every other recession thought history. The gap grows bigger, the north suffers for the south.
And the Government is focused on the south.
It is simple a strong UK needs a strong North and a strong South the North South divide hurts every one.
But it not all bad
Property price
Cost of living
Are all lower

When trolls attack
We have all seen or even experienced a troll attack at one time or other I am sure. I know I have.
So how do you deal with it ?
( Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[4])
As a business a troll is similar but different to a negative review which requires attention a troll does not. The same is true as a person.
The world is full of negativity and trolls feed on this it is natural to want to attack back, but don't this is what they want your feeding their ego the felling of self worth and more importantly the negativity they are spinning out.
