Alex Ellis-Roswell called in at Wells lifeboat station on Tuesday evening where he was welcomed by members of the crew along with chairman Peter Rainsford and Operations Manager Chris Hardy. Alex has spent the past 3 years walking the entire coast of Britain and Ireland raising money for the RNLI. He's on the home stretch now, having walked around 9000 miles since starting setting out from Margate in Kent in August 2014 but still has 500 miles or so left to go.
His epic journey has so far raised over £60,000 for the RNLI and Alex arrived in Wells at dusk having walked from Hunstanton, with a further £66 in his RNLI collection bucket.
We are hugely grateful for his support for the lifeboats and wish him the best in the final weeks of his walk. Our thanks too to those who helped with Alex's bags and lifts and to Ben and Imelda for putting him up.
