A Huge thank you to all of the volunteers who met up to walk, cycle or even drive between churches in Northamptonshire to raise money for historic churches across the county and for our own parish church. All money raised is split between the traveller's home parish and Northamptonshire Historic Churches, to help maintain our places of worship.
Hardy Travellers from Hinton-in-the-Hedges met to fortify themselves with bacon and sausage baps before heading out to rack up the miles. Most people either walked or cycles (some churches sent out mounted teams on horseback) and some of our older volunteers joined in by carpooling to each church. They were met by volunteers manning the sign in registers at the other churches, and offering refreshments to keep up energy during the day.
Our volunteers broke for lunch just as the heavens opened, before returning safe and satisfied to our Parish.
Well done to everyone. Do join us next year!
