Fundraising Thames walk over eight bridges.
Fifteen happy walkers, a higher number than last year, assembled on the Westminster Cathedral Piazza for our second Thames Bridges Walk. Once again our renowned member, Eric Considine, ably assisted by John Rudge, ensured that all went smoothly and that we all walked in the same direction. Four hours later, the walkers were still smiling and looking fit and healthier with the satisfaction that we had increased the help we can give to the children with disabilities in Bambang. The sponsorship money collected was a magnificent £680. The participants then enjoyed a free meal, kindly donated again by Ben Boeteng, Manager of McDonald’s restaurant, a very generous gesture that was greatly appreciated.
Our thanks to all who participated and to those who sponsored the walk, which has now become an annual event. We plan to hold our third sponsored walk probably on a Saturday morning in March next year.We hope to welcome many new participants and Florencia will be pleased to let you have details at the beginning of the new year.
