Met Police officer Tom Harrison has been knocking on over a hundred doors as he treks the country in aid of the British Red Cross' Ukraine appeal.
He described his latest experience as "daunting".
"The first place I stopped, it was an elderly couple who lived on a road leading up from Land's End on the north coast of Cornwall," he said."[All the people that have helped] are heroes in their own right and they've been part of my story." Starting on 12 September and walking 20 miles a day, his trek has taken him through Hayle in Cornwall, Yeovil in Somerset and Basingstoke in Hampshire.Speaking on why he is doing the "ludicrous walk" for the Ukraine Crisis Appeal, he said: "Their suffering has been far beyond mine."Really my day-to-day, the fatigue and finding food or accommodation, is nothing compared to what .
The Red Cross is using the money from the appeal to provide emergency relief to people in Ukraine and bordering countries, and also supporting people Ukrainians arriving in the UK
