Story

When I became a Mothers' Union member, one of the things that really impressed me was the Away From It All (AFIA) project. Taking families on holiday with support from volunteers to a safe environment, providing meals, accommodation and activities changes lives.

I became more involved and am now the AFIA coordinator for the 2022 holiday run by the Canterbury Diocese Mothers' Union.

Five years ago, I walked from Margate to London to raise funds for the 140 years of Mothers' Union but travelled along main roads. This time, I am taking the coastal route - much longer but more pretty. I shall be posting progress on this and a facebook page and would welcome people to join me for sections - as well as  donations.
