In 2013, Raynor Winn and her husband, Moth lost their beloved farm in Wales, it was where they'd lived for 20 years and raised their children.
In the same week, Moth was diagnosed with a rare degenerative brain disease and doctors gave him just two years to live.
Homeless and with their future together rapidly shrinking, Raynor and Moth decided to walk the South West Coast path.
They camped wild in all weathers and often didn't have enough money for food.
But amazingly, Moth's health began to improve.
When they completed the walk, they found themselves in the midst of a whole new chapter.
