Not All Who Wander Are Lost!!!
Hello Everyone!!!
My name is Peggy-Sue, in 2024, I am walking 5x 25km Ultra Challenges, in aid of the Wilts & Berks Canal Trust
5 Challenges, representing the 5 Branches!!!
I will be walking the following:
25km - Winter Walk, London - Saturday 27th January 2024
25km - Easter Walk, Windsor - Saturday 6th April 2024
25km - Summer Walk, London - Saturday 24th August 2024
25km - Thames Bridges, London - Saturday 14th September 2024
25km - Halloween Walk, London - Saturday 26th October 2024
I am an active member of the Swindon Branch of the Wilts & Berks Canal Trust and fond of walking a Canal Towpath.
I am raising funds, to help towards the restoration and creating the blue & green corridor for all to enjoy.
Restoring the canal would not only benefit us mere humans, but the ecological benefits to the flora and fauna are astronomical too!
