How you can support

El Camino Español is currently an entirely self-funded project.

We are looking to connect with aligned partners, brands, supporters, and individuals who can help bring the challenge to life, from support vehicles, running gear, nutrition, and recovery, through to media production, logistics, and direct financial backing.

At this stage, every partnership can be bespoke. The goal is to open meaningful conversations with people who believe in the purpose of the project and want to help make it happen.

“With the right people around you, an impossible challenge becomes something you can move towards one step at a time.”

I started this journey with a simple question: how far can one person go when the purpose is bigger than themselves?

Together, we’ll carry this story across Spain, one mile at a time, showing that resilience is not just about pushing forward - it’s about remembering why you started.
