SPRING SOCIAL –MARCH 23rd.
• Sarah Williams gave us a fantastic talk entitled “A Life with a Purpose” which left us all dizzy with admiration for all her many achievements and charitable work.
• Despite living with Marfan Syndrome for many years she and her guide dog Ozzie are an inspiration to us all.
• Money raised on the evening will go to the Ellen McArthur Cancer Charity and the RNIB Sunshine School in Northwood where Sarah taught braille for 7 years.

Walking Partnership with Ramblers Holidays
• In November 2012 the Club joined The Walking Partnership supported by Ramblers Worldwide Holidays.
• Benefits to the club include:-payments when members book individual holidays with RH, discounts on Group bookings and (potential) payment for advertising RH in club literature.
• So can I encourage anyone booking Ramblers Holidays to let us know as the club gets (small) payments back.
• Money is to used to promote Walking !
