The ‘walking section’ of the Memorial Club was created in 2003 when 5 members - Kate, at that time, couldn’t be a member of the club but subsequently joined -decided to walk the full length of the Sandstone Trail from Whitchurch to Frodsham. Over the two day trek Steve Armitage, Gary Hammond, Keith Hobart, Tony and Kate Crompton - including a slight detour for overnight lodging - walked a total of 37 miles. Raising
£650 in sponsorship, Keith’s company matched the money to give a fantastic total of £1,300 for Children In Need. A great achievement.
The ‘section’ has since taken 2 day walking breaks to the Peak District, the Yorkshire Dales and the Richmond Walking Festival and welcomes new additions to the group for a healthy option to your usual weekend activity!
