Chris Lewis, an ex-paratrooper, had hit rock bottom, suffering with anxiety and depression so severe he would shut himself in his bedroom for weeks. Then, in summer 2017, whilst surfing – his only respite – he cast his eyes along the coast and made an impulsive decision that would change his life. A few days later, on 1st August 2017, with nothing but a broken tent, a borrowed pair of boots and £10 in his pocket, Chris set off to walk the entire UK coastline raising funds for the veterans charity, SSAFA. He had no idea how long it would take him or if it was even possible. What followed was the adventure of a lifetime which turned his life around. He adopted his beloved dog, Jet, nine months into the journey who became his devoted companion.

Chris’s story is a brutal and beautiful true story of depression, survival, finding hope, happiness and the meaning of home.

Tickets £12 (plus a booking fee). Tickets are available at the Real Pathways website
