On Sunday 10th May six BEC took part in a sponsored walk from Priddy Green to the Glastonbury Festival site in Pilton for the charity WaterAid. We were originally informed that the walk would be 10.75 miles but when we registered at 10am on Sunday morning it turned out the walk had grown to 12 miles. Thankfully the weather was wonderful and the company just as perfect. Walking went well and we stopped for a brief lunch bite in Wells before marching on to the finish. Even with getting lost between North Wootton and Pilton we managed the walk in 5 hours.
As it currently stands the BEC team have raised £215 plus £60.64 of gift aid for the charity WaterAid. For a gift of just £15 WaterAid can provide one person in Africa or Asia with a lasting supply of safe, clean water, sanitation and hygiene education. That means that we have helped a lot of people who are are not as fortunate as we are. Many thanks to everyone who sponsored us! Your donations kept us going!
The team photo was taken on the Monarch Way looking towards Wells. We had press pictures taken of us at the beginning and end so fingers crossed you might see us in the paper! We were the only people carrying a large flag!
Once again many thanks to everyone who supported us,
