On 21st October 2011 a group of friends and family will walk the West Highland Way in memory of Glen Oldham. Glen died of a Brain Stem Haemorrhage, he was 44 years old and a fit and healthy active young man, there were no symptoms and his family had no idea that this was going to happen.

Audrey, Glen’s wife has organised the 97 mile walk to commemorate Glen’s life starting near Glasgow at Milngavie and finishing near Fort William, the team will walk for 7 days covering anything between 12 to 19 miles per day.

Glen planned to do this walk but unfortunately passed away before he was able to fulfil his dream. So in a tribute to Glen we will carry out his dream for him. Find out more about the Highland Way walk and donate visit remember-glen.co.uk
