Greeting, people of Staffordshire and beyond. I am James Billington, the Mayor of Stafford and I am will be walking from Nottingham Castle to Stafford Castle. This 55 mile trek will start on Thursday 22 May and end on Saturday 24 May.  

I am raising funds for Katharine House Hospice in Stafford. It's a fantastic charity. A really fantastic cause. 

You may recall there was controversy about who the real mayor of Stafford was. Thankfully, that is all water under the bridge. I am the mayor of Stafford. Just google 'mayorofstafford' for more info.

I will arrive on Saturday 24 May at Stafford Castle. Come and join me! Food! Drinks! Badges! Balloons! More details at @mayorofstafford and facebook.com/the mayorofstafford
