Jane’s Walk for CEF 2023
Once more, Tom, I, and our dog Moses are off to complete another walk in aid of our two Charities, ZANE: Zimbabwe A National Emergency and ‘CEF’ The Community Emergency Foodbank in Oxford.
This year, we are walking 130 miles in Norfolk. “Very flat Norfolk,” or that is what we are hoping! According to the BBC, the weather is set fair for the next week at least, which is a big relief, having endured a pretty dire August. Our start point tomorrow is in the market town of Swatham, which turns out to be a charming place with an open market square and attractive Georgian houses. The square is full of ponies and carts tethered in the centre. Trotting racing is a keen sport in the area.
Our hosts for the evening live in a very charming Georgian Malt House near the centre of town with a stunning garden designed and maintained by our host.
Like previous years, I will be writing a weekly blog so do follow my progress if you want.
