Porthgain and Conwy

Derek's final instalment has a very personal connection to his contributors who have overcome injury and disability to get out and about.

Derek's final instalment has a very personal connection to his contributors who have overcome injury and disability to get out and about. He starts in Pembrokeshire, in the quiet fishing village of Porthgain to meet local seaman, Captain Brian Thomas, who spent weeks in a coma after collapsing when out walking. They also explore the area's industrial past, and soak in the stunning sea views. Finally it's right to the top of Wales, to RSPB Conwy to meet Nicola Cockburn who's been blind since birth, and find out what's involved when she goes out walking. Derek also hears more about how her passion for bird watching helps her get the most from going for a walk
