From Manchester to Ibiza on foot: Young Henry Moores reaches the island

After more than 1,930 kilometers and three months of adventure, the young man has shared this Sunday in his social networks his arrival in Ibiza

“Today is the day. I’m in Ibiza, I can’t believe it”. These are the words of Henry Moores arriving this Sunday in Ibiza. The young man, who began his adventure in March, has walked the distance between Manchester and Ibiza, something that has more than 1,930 kilometers (the sea routes have been made by ferry).

 
 

During his trip the young man has raised £119,000, explaining. “Thank you so much to everyone who donated. Please keep sharing, keep commenting, keep liking, I love you all.” This money will go to charities. Specifically, to the Tony Hudgell Foundationwhich focuses on improving the lives of children “affected by physical, emotional or psychological abuse”.

It is not the first time he has performed a feat of this kind, since in November 2023 he raised £20,000 for humanitarian action by walking from Britain to Paris (about 805 kilometers), Lad Bible reports. He documented that journey on his TikTok account and hopes to do the same for the one to Ibiza.

Support from Wayne Lineker, owner of O Beach Ibiza

The idea for this adventure came about when Henry apparently sent a private message to Wayne Lineker, owner of O Beach Ibizavia his Instagram account, promising him that if he replied to the message he would start the adventure of walking to the island. Lineker replied and invited him to his London home. There he promised him that he would meet the young man in Ibiza as soon as he set foot on the island. And so he did, as can be seen in the video he shared on his Instagram account.
