What a pleasant way to spend a day. Lovely people, beautiful scenery and good weather you couldn’t ask for more. Sheila takes full credit for such a successful event. She took control, planned all the details and kept everyone informed. She managed this event to run in tandem with the AYME Coast to Coast Cycle Ride. We agreed to make it a joint fundraising event with AYME, so lots of information was sent out with Cheers (AYME’s magazine) as well as our own Young People’s magazine (ME&U).

We attracted people from across the Country, In all 49 people took part in the walk, and everyone managed to complete the full 9 miles. We made over £2,500 and we thank everyone who took part. An evening social event brought the walkers and cyclists together and we had a very entertaining time singing and making music. If you like the lakes (and who doesn’t?) you could make this a mini holiday. Sheila will be talking with AYME to see if we are going to do something similar next year – watch this space!!!!!!
