Beyond Radio presenter Rachel Banks has revealed the good cause she will be supporting as part of a fundraising team taking on our '10 for 10 Trek'.

Banksy will be one of the team of presenters taking part in a sponsored 10-mile walk to raise funds for 10 good causes as part of our 10th birthday celebrations.

The '10 for 10 Trek' on Sunday May 10, between our transmitter sites in Carnforth and Lancaster, is part of our 'Beyond Radio 10 for 10' celebratory year of events.

We are aiming to raise £1000 through JustGiving plus personal sponsorship money, which we will split between 10 local charities/community groups around the Lancaster and Morecambe Bay area.

Rachel, who presents Banksy on Beyond on Tuesday evenings on Beyond Radio, will be supporting Wolfwood Wildlife and Dog Rescue in Lancaster.

"They do fantastic work rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming animals in need," said Rachel.

"Their dedicated team care for all sorts of animals giving each one the time and attention they deserve.

"I'm also supporting Wolfwood because it means a lot to me personally.

"I adopted my dog Oscar from them in 2020, and although we sadly lost him last year, the time we had with him was incredibly special and he brought much joy to our lives.

"This is my way of giving something back to help them continue the amazing work that they do."

Rachel will join Mat Cook, supporting Bundles of Joy, Paul Fisher, supporting Lancaster & District Homeless Action ServicePhil McGrath, who is supporting Barton Road CentreLuke Edmondson, who is supporting Lancashire MINDBeth Pipe, who is supporting Animal Care, and Duncan Moore, who is supporting Friends of Lancaster Cemetery, on the 10 for 10 Trek.

We will reveal more of the presenting team, and the good causes they will be supporting, very soon.

We have chosen 10 special events in the Lancaster and Morecambe Bay community to be involved in this year to help celebrate our 10th birthday.

So far the 10 for 10 has included our involvement in Lancaster's Big Spring Clean 2026, a live broadcast from Lancaster's first ever Unsigned Festival and the first ever Beyond Radio Junior Poet Laureate Competition.
