sam hyslop is fundraising for The Josh Evans Trust Fund
I’m taking on the Cotswold Way Ultra Challenge for The Josh Evans Trust Fund! 🏞️👟
On 13-14 June 2026, I’ll be tackling the Cotswold Way Ultra Challenge — The challenge is simple 100km in 24 hours a non stop 24hr race of running, walking, crawling and or crying. It’s a real endurance test, and I’m excited (and nervous!) to take it on for a great cause.
I’m fundraising for the Josh Evans Trust Fund, a charity that provides essential support to children with diabetes and their families in Somerset — from education and peer support to helping with equipment and advocating for better care. Their work makes a meaningful difference to young lives every day.
✨ Why this matters:
Josh was my friend who was tragically killed on October 24th 2008 in a car accident whilst driving, as a result of suffering a hypoglycaemic attack. He was aged twenty-one. This trust has been established in Josh’s memory.
Diabetes can be incredibly challenging for children and their families. The Josh Evans Trust Fund offers practical help, information, and community support — helping families navigate this journey together with confidence.
