T-Rex Treks for Teenage Cancer Trust

Lloyd Scott has completed a COLOSSAL challenge to raise money for Teenage Cancer Trust…

Walking from Land’s End to John O’Groats alongside a lifesize replica of the Tyrannosaurus Rex dinosaur, Lloyd’s trek covered more than 1,000 miles and took 70 days.

The T-Rex Trek began on Sunday 19 July and ended on Sunday 27 September - blog posts, pictures, and video are posted on this site to document his journey.

“Teenage Cancer Trust is a charity very close to my heart having survived leukaemia at a young age. I wanted to do something big for the charity this year to celebrate my life saving transplant and you can’t get much bigger than a life-size dinosaur!” Lloyd Scott.
