Story

We've planned an adventure in early July (07.07.17 to be precise!) to raise funds for Samaritans of Shrewsbury.  The number 7 is significant  as I want to celebrate volunteering at the branch for 17 years and the fact that I'll be seventy later on in the year.  Richard, my very patient trip advisor and chauffeur, is walking with me. He has planned a route taking in seven countries on successive days, starting in France and finishing in Belgium.  We'll be walking seven miles a day, each walk in a different country.  We are hoping to raise lots of money for a very special charity which relies entirely on the generosity of the general public for its existence. At a time when mental health, poverty, loneliness, homelessness, addiction, self harm and suicidal thoughts are much in evidence, our telephone lines are always  busy day and night. 

We would so appreciate your support for our adventure.
