Sponsors and Messages

If you are willing to sponsor my walk that would be really fantastic. You can do so by:

THANK YOU

Many thanks to all who have given on line and to everyone who has donated in other ways. A list of our on-line sponsors and their kind messages of support can be seen on the Just Giving page.

In addition ...

May in front of the Brudenell hotel

A huge "thank you" to Thorpeness & Aldeburgh Hotels Ltd (www.aldeburgh-breaks.co.uk & www.theswanatlavenham.co.uk) both for getting my fund-raising campaign off to a fantastic start and for giving me and my Dad a wonderful stay at the Brudenell when we reached our halfway point at Aldeburgh. This is what I had to say about it.

Many thanks also to everyone else who has donated and helped me in other ways:

May with Rob Chase of Adnams.

Adnams of Southwold

Many thanks to The Crown for your hospitality while we stayed in Southwold, and to Mr Rob Chase for your generosity in supplying wine and discounting Dad’s wine order for his cellar - all of which helped me build up my fund!

Thank you, Jeremy, for your very generous cheque.

Atec Solutions Ltd.

Many thanks John and Peter for building this excellent site at short notice and for updating it as the walk progressed - also for your generous donation

Many thanks to Niki Spatchett for arranging a special visit for me at Sizewell B, and to Mike Harris for showing me and Dad around the nuclear power station.

Thank you, James for your kind support.

Mr Glen Ogilvie

Thank you very much for meeting us to explain to me the fascinating history of Thorpeness, and for the free boat ride on the Meare (I made Dad row us everywhere!)

Thank you for showing me backstage at Snape Maltings and for introducing me to the artists at the performance on 2nd October.

Royal Society for the Protection of Birds

Many thanks to everyone at RSPB Minsmere for giving me an unforgettable first day as a life member, and especially to Mr Paul Green for my welcoming pack and a sensational 4x4 safari to see marsh harrier, the Polish ponies and rutting red deer.

Mr Peter Sproxton

Thank you for showing me round the Coastguard station at Shingle Street, for letting me read your incident logbook, and for explaining what you do.
