Friends of Angela are organising the annual charity walk, venturing on the first section of the West Highland Way from Milngavie to Balmaha on Saturday May 5th 2018. We start at 0930.

We hold many special personal and loving memories of Angela close to our hearts and this is a happy day where we are able to reflect on her life and make a tangible difference in her memory.

Our chosen charity - Saint Margaret of Scotland Hospice - has supported Glasgow and the West since 1950 providing palliative care for those with life-limiting conditions. Angela received such care, attention and love but not before she herself became one of the Beatson Oncology Units largest single fund-raisers in 2012, walking the full West Highland Way during her treatment. This single minded determination shown by Angela provides us the platform with which to do great things, thus ensuring those individuals and families who need Saint Margaret's care and support will receive it when needed.

The Walk has varying degrees of difficulty and we make the following suggestions which are similar to past years: -

Suggested donations

• Half Walk to The Beech Tree Inn     Adults (£10); Children (£5)
• Full Walk to The Oak Tree Inn          Adults (£20)

• We set off at 0930 at the Obelisk at the start of The West Highland Way (opposite Costa Coffee)
• Families are encouraged, with children walking to The Beech Tree Inn, Dumgoyne (be aware that for little legs - this is a 7.5 mile walk!)
• Adult's will continue on to The Oak Tree Inn, Balmaha
• Bring plenty of fluids, packed lunch and sugary snacks based on where you are walking to - The Beech Tree provide lunches and hot drinks at your own cost; booking is recommended (01360 550297)
• Be prepared for the Scottish weather! Wear appropriate clothes and footwear
• Sections of The Walk (Carbeth Loch) require passing on the B821 - this will be marshalled to a point, however children must be accompanied/supervised by an adult
• There will be mini-bus provision from The Oak Tree only at 2100 hours returning to Milngavie. Please confirm your requirement to reserve seating space!
