One man’s remarkable journey on foot across Britain.
Reaching a major crossroads in 2021, Patrick Davies did the only thing he could think of – he set off alone with a pair of walking boots and a tent to walk the length of the UK in the hope of finding escape and answers.
To many, Patrick appeared to have it all – a loving family, an enviable career that took him around the world, a rewarding future clearly mapped out. Then everything abruptly changed. He found himself returning to Britain without a job or a home to discover a family reeling from his father’s dementia diagnosis and a country tearing itself apart.
In sharing his 1400-mile journey from the southernmost point of England to the northern tip of Scotland, Patrick explores issues of identity and belonging, anticipatory grief and the meaning of home against the backdrop of a world turned upside down.
Where Skylarks Sing is an uplifting story of resilience and hope, told through the beautiful landscapes of Britain.
