Redland Ladies Hockey Club presents their Christmas challenge: Redland Ladies Take On England!

2020 has not been a good year for travel, but that’s not stopping the Redland ladies doing a tour of England to raise money for the hockey club and partly for charity, the RSPB!

No, no, no – do not fear… lockdowns, tier systems, social distancing and staying local advice is not being disregarded – this is a virtual tour!! Starting at the start of December and stretching across 6 weeks, the club will aim to cover the distance of the circumference of England – 4,775km (made up of 4,422km of coastline and two land borders with Scotland, 96km, and Wales, 257km).

With a collective effort from 37 members, each person has pledged an individual distance to cover to collectively hit our total distance. Some hockey legends pledging up to 400km!!

Dates: Starting Tues 1st Dec – Concluding Tues 12th Jan (6 weeks duration)

Distance: England circumference rounds up to - 4,775km

How: Distance can be covered only by cycling/running/walking/rowing/swimming. - individuals will log and submit distances covered via tracking apps.

Fundraising: funds raised will be split between the club and RSPB.

Thank you for any support you can give! :)
