Fundraising Superstar Tanya Hodges Takes on Second Ultra Challenge for PTSD Resolution

Charity Ambassador Prepares for Gruelling 100km Cotswold Way Hike to Support UK Veterans’ Mental Health

Charity fundraiser Tanya Hodges is once again undertaking an extreme challenge: in June 2024 she will walk non-stop for 100km along the Cotswold Way to raise funds for PTSD Resolution.

This is the latest in Tanya’s Ultra Challenge initiatives, which have included a series of formidable mountain endurance events. She has summited Mount Kilimanjaro and climbed to Everest Base Camp, all in support of PTSD Resolution.



The registered UK charity is dedicated to assisting UK Veterans, Reservists and family members struggling to reintegrate into everyday life. Founded in 2009, the charity provides free, prompt and effective therapy through a UK-wide network of 200 therapists - with treatment available online or by phone. 

With over 4,000 referrals to date, supporters like Tanya help to both fund treatment programmes - and to spread awareness of the service to UK Veterans in need.

In September 2023 Tanya completed her first 100km Ultra Hike from Eastbourne to Arundel - completing this without a break in an impressive 26 hours. "It was a huge mental and physical challenge, and I vowed never again... But here I am, gearing up for another!”

This time, she plans to conquer the 100km trek along the majestic Cotswold Way without stopping. With an impressive £9,000 raised to date, Tanya’s goal is to increase this total - and enable more Veterans and families to access effective treatment:

"In putting myself through this arduous challenge, I aim to make a positive impact on the lives of our brave Veterans,” Tanya says. “PTSD Resolution's commitment to mental health support is truly remarkable, and I urge everyone to give what they can to help our Veterans.”

Currently in South Africa undergoing intensive training for her upcoming hike, Tanya continues to push at her limits with a resilience that inspires her supporters. With a belief that challenging herself physically echoes the mental and emotional battles faced by Veterans, Tanya aims to bring renewed hope to those seeking help and support:

"I am subjecting myself to this arduous challenge to raise funds for PTSD Resolution,” she said, “I humbly request that you give what you can to support our Veterans.”
