Walking to the last 'local' Alton — 88 Miles for Local Children & Families
Three days, 88 miles, another 'Alton' (Alton Pancras) — raising money for the charities at the heart of September's Big Alton Charity Walk.
There are seven Altons in England. Last October, I walked 53 miles to two of them – Alton Barnes and Alton Priors, tucked in Wiltshire's Vale of Pewsey. This July, I'm finishing the job: an 88-mile walk to Alton Pancras in Dorset, near Cerne Abbas, via Braishfield and Cranborne. Three days, 26–28 July (weather permitting — anything over 30°C and I'll postpone). I'm heavily involved in planning September's Big Alton Charity Walk (27th September), and I thought this would be a good way to kick off fundraising for it early.
The event supports:
> Bushy Leaze
> Riding for the Disabled
> Home-Start
> Kings Arms
All four charities work directly with children, young people, and families in and around Alton. Every donation, whatever the size, will help!
