Story
The Plunkett Foundation helped us save the Fox at Loxley and for the 2023 walk we want to raise £300 by walking from the BBC CWR office in Coventry to the Fox at Loxley, but calling in at the New Inn pub in Norton Lindsey and Barford Community shop before arriving at the Fox at Loxley around 6:00pm.
We will also have people walking from the Yew Tree Community Pub in Avon Dassett, Illmington shop, Long Marston Shop and Gaydon Community shop all aiming to finish at the Fox at Loxley between 6:00pm and 7:00pm for a celebration drink.
Please sponsor us and come along and join one of the walks and help us raise money for the Plunkett Foundation so they can save more community businesses.
Plunkett is a UK-wide charity working with communities who are facing the loss of a vital local facility such as pub, shop, farm or bakery. They support communities to enable them to take the dream of community-ownership and turn it in a thriving community business. Community businesses do more than just provide a service - they encompass community spirit; they bring work and training opportunities and they're a hub for social interaction to ensure no-one becomes lost or forgotten. By raising funds in support of Plunkett's services, together we'll be helping more communities tackle the issues they face.
