How can it take 19 months to lay 2 meters of pipe?! @thameswater are preventing vulnerable people with learning disabilities from moving into the new homes I've built for them, due to ridiculous delays. Not sure if it's incompetent or willful behaviour. #thameswater

This Swift motorhome keeps on getting better! Owners @AlexAlexandrak2 & @irenethalas just donated the whole hire cost they received, to my SleepWalk fundraising page!! Incredibly generous! 😇 Now at 96% of target.... 🤞 @Yescapa @swiftgroup https://t.co/u7bqdTGMyF

[Sleep.Walker: Giles Harrison @SleepWalkGiles]

Just handed back the fabulous @swiftgroup motorhome to owner @AlexAlexandrak2. Thank you, it was a brilliant support base. FYI, it's available to hire through @Yescapa (and you don't have to walk 225km!) 😁

Whilst Giles is braving a third night outdoors, the support team are grateful for their cosy base! Thank you @Yescapa @AlexAlexandrak2 @irenethalas 64 hours in and #stillwalking.

Thank you @rnli_teddington for one of the most eagerly-awaited cups of tea on the planet! 56 hours into my 72 hour walk, I felt like I'd been rescued! #stillwalking. @TowerRNLI @RNLI

[Sleep.Walker: Giles Harrison @SleepWalkGiles]

I've walked 100 miles! In this heat, too. (OK that's not true - at night it got so cold I had 3 layers on)

Please share my story with anyone & everyone who might be interested, inspired, moved, similarly bonkers or supportive. https://t.co/4NXRdRIplZ. #stillwalking

Dawn 2 of 3 and I'm #stillwalking. 😃 Blisters? Yes. Sore legs? Yes. Sleepy? A bit. Positive attitude? You bet!!

Wouldn't be here without incredible support from so many people. 💓
Big love to you all.

[Sleep.Walker: Giles Harrison @SleepWalkGiles]

Nothing like a soothing ice bath to make you wish you were #stillwalking! Respect the water! @rnli @TowerRNLI @rnli_teddington

[Sleep.Walker: Giles Harrison @SleepWalkGiles]

@swiftgroup Thank you! Over a third of the way in and still going strong! My support team and I are loving your Escape 685 - having such a wonderful base makes all the difference.

[Sleep.Walker: Giles Harrison @SleepWalkGiles]

Dawn in Richmond Park - simply magical!! Thank you @theroyalparks for looking after it for us all so carefully.

20 hours in, 47 miles walked so far & #stillwalking for @CureParkinsonsT, @Bowel_Cancer_UK & @TowerRNLI 😊 Help me go further at https://t.co/4NXRdRIplZ

[Sleep.Walker: Giles Harrison @SleepWalkGiles]

Goodnight everyone with a bed to go to! To get me through the night I'll be entertaining wildlife in Richmond Park with 3am disco dance-walking #stillwalking If you think I'm bonkers, please share: https://t.co/4NXRdRIplZ

A pleasant evening stroll, following a pleasant afternoon stroll and a pleasant morning stroll. #stillwalking 😋

[Sleep.Walker: Giles Harrison @SleepWalkGiles]

@Jill_W_17 Thanks very much Jill. All good so far! 45km in and going strong. #stillwalking

[Sleep.Walker: Giles Harrison @SleepWalkGiles]

Three hours in, sixty-nine hours to go! Time for a quick foot bath and a sandwich before hitting the road again #stillwalking

[Sleep.Walker: Giles Harrison @SleepWalkGiles]

Pre-walk stretching complete, GPS reset, and walking has commenced! #stillwalking
