Hi, and thanks for visiting our page.

Please support our group walk in aid of BLISS, the charity committed to improving the chances of babies born prematurely, and supporting the parents of premature babies. The 20 mile walk took place on June 7th 2008 along the Thames path from Hampton Court to Windsor, from 9am to 5pm.

The walk was in memory of Lucy & Kristina Booth, Natalie's nieces born prematurely at just 25 weeks in 2007, both much loved and sorely missed. We hope through fundraising to improve the chances of other babies born prematurely.

15 of us walked in total, the sun shone and we all made it to the end! It was a great day and we all suffered appropriate levels of aching as a result! Thanks to The Alma for a fabulous BBQ at the end, and generous donation (http://www.thedinnersinthedog.com/alma/index.html).

All donations are very gratefully received.
