Walk for Sri Lanka


On World Leprosy Day this year we held a sponsored walk through Cuerdan Valley Country Park here in Lancashire to raise funds for SUROL - the leprosy Charity in Sri Lanka under the patronage of Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith. There are no photos of the event, as it was pouring with rain, so we didn't linger anywhere for such niceties - hence the picture of my walking boots and hat. The hot home-made soup was much appreciated on our return!

The good news is that we have raised the sum of £250 for our good cause. Thank you to those who walked and to those who sponsored us. Members are still welcome to add to that amount if you forgot to sponsor us on the day!
