A band of brothers walked the distance between the Edge Leisure Centre and Herons Leisure Centre in Woolmer Hill, Surrey on Saturday morning, 2nd April. Thanks to all those taking part both walkers (who took days to recover!) and supporters. We'll be putting pictures on when we've got them all together for the newsletter and hopefully a link to some of the interviews made for Kestrel FM.
