group joined Queen’s Guide Cedric Robinson and several hundred more walkers, representing two more char­ ity organisations, at Arnside. From there they walked along the shore before heading out across the bay. With perfect weather, the sweeping views around the coast were spectac­ ular, from Bolton-le-Sands to More- cambe, the destination - Kents Bank, Grange-over-Sands to the Cumbrian fells. Grindleton organisers Chris and Linda Richardson were delighted by


the response. Sawley resident Melissa ’ O’Rourke was among those who took part and commented; “ It was a very enjoyable walk, suitable for all the family and nice to be able to take the children and friends of all abilities with me - lovely views, a very wor­ thy charity, a lovely day” were typi­ cal of compliments heard.

walk involved “ paddling.” The first ivith water ankle deep and the second . across the Kent Channel, the fastest; flowing river in England, covering, knees or thighs dependant on height!

The RNLI’s new hovercraft was also on standby alongside the Kent Channel, serving as a reminder of the hidden dangers posed by the sands. Once at Kents Bank, those who


had travelled by car caught the coastal train back to Arnside, while


the others boarded the coach for the return-journey. The response was such that the


organisers hope to repeat the walk next year. On Monday, Mr Richardson said


that more than £1,900 had been raised so far, and those who have yet
