Hell of a walk – Gamesley
Hell of a walk – Gamesley : If you were passing the shops on Tuesday evening, and you hadn’t seen the earlier announcements you may have been wondering what the hub bub was on the shops.
Well the excitement and enthusiasm were all to support and encourage Jo Brand who was passing through Gamesley whilst on her ‘hell of a walk’ from Hull to Liverpool in aid of Sport Relief.
Prior to reaching Gamesley on day 5 of her walk, Jo had started the day in Langsett before climbing over the Woodhead and trekking the length of the Longdendale Trail, and Royston Vasey before getting Gamesley welcome on the shops at Winster Mews.
Whilst I got the impression Jo would have been happy to stop and talk with some of the well-wishers in attendance, she was chivvied onwards toward a meeting with Devina Macall in Broadbottom.
If you’ve seen the news in the last day or so, you will have seen that Jo has completed her ‘hell of a walk’ and reached Liverpool, an achievement that is well worth a donation if you can.
