"To mark my 70th birthday, I had planned to cycle the historic ‘Pilgrim route’ from the French border to Santiago de Compostela. The pilgrimage is an epic 842 kilometres (personal target 500kms) and will take place between September 14 – 26th 2010.
As a local Town Councillor and Chairman of Southwell Heritage Trust, I wanted a local charity to benefit from any sponsor money raisedTime Travelling at Southwell Minster is a self supporting educational pilgrimage event for primary school children in Nottinghamshire and the East Midlands region. Every one of the 7500 places at Time Travelling is subsidised, and I felt that making a pilgrimage to benfit school children in their pilgrimage was appropriate."Please give generously – every penny raised will go directly to this project.
