Story
Three years ago I was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation and underwent an ablation at Freeman's hospital Newcastle. I am pleased to report that this was a great success and last year I was discharged from any follow ups.
I am now fit and able to enjoy walking again and frequently enjoy 15-20 mile walks.
I want to celebrate this fitness and support something very close to my heart which is my local church of Our Lady Star of the Sea and St Michael .
This beautiful church is in urgent need of restoration being a grade ii listed building and we need to raise a lot of money.
The church is one of three Pugin churches in the area (Pugin being the architect). St Mary's Cleator and St Beghs Whitehaven being the other two.
I propose to walk from Our Lady Star of the Sea and St Michael's in Workington on the old railway line to St Beghs in Whitehaven and then onto St Mary's at Cleator and the back to Our Lady Star of the Sea and St Michael's calling back into St Beghs which should be approximately 24 miles.
If anyone would like to join me and raise some money for this cause please feel free I would welcome the company.
