2008 - The Susannah Bradley Walk
The Susannah Bradley Walk was organised by Debbie
and Rob Neve, great friends of Susannah Bradley who died recently. The
Walk was arranged for Sunday 12th October 2008. To learn more about
Susannah, click here
We
had between 90 and 100 people walking on the day both on the 3 and 6 mile
routes. Money received on the day, and donations following the day
from people unable to attend for whatever reason, now stands at £1,315.50. Which we feel is fantastic.
We have had many people saying how much they enjoyed not only the walks,
but also the occasion to all come together. We were also very grateful to
the Royal British Legion for the use of their hall to start and finish the
walk and enjoy tea and cake.
I
know of one more cheque which I have been told is in the post so the
current figure will increase, and it seems every time I come home there is
another donation! As we said, all proceeds are going to the St Helena Hospice.
They have been given all the cash and cheques collected on Sunday, and the
rest will be added and included when I next go into
Colchester
.
Once they have received all the money, they
will give me a Certificate confirming the amount donated that I will pass
on to Roger and Stella and James. I am hoping to scan some copies of this
certificate to pass on to various people, as I am sure there are many
interested parties in Wivenhoe.
To
sum up it was a superb day and we thank everyone who helped on the day,
who donated and who walked. What more can I say .......
We
have the walks electronically, if anyone would like a copy they can e-mail
us on debbie.rob@btinternet.com or call at 37 West Quay.
