Ronnie Whelan's Ragdoll Walk

Before we say our own "Thank Yous" here's a message from Ronnie Whelan, Our Charity Patron:


"Well we did it. 104 miles in four days. A marathon a day. There will be a lot of aching bodies this morning but we all felt a great sense of achievement once we finished yesterday. A huge thank you to all those people who donated money whether it was on line or during the walk. Thanks a million times to everybody who walked, who drove cars and camper vans. It could not have been possible without you. A special thanks to tim Odriscoll. He knows why. A lot of myasthenics will be better off because of his efforts. Cheers tim."
