Just a quick note to thank you for a great event. Well
organised, a great atmosphere, and inspirational - what more
can you ask for? David
I just wanted to send a quick email to say thanks for
your help regarding the Peace Walk yesterday. We really
enjoyed it and learnt a lot from talking to other people as
well as the presentations themselves. We had five Cubs turn
up and they lasted the WHOLE ROUTE, so we were pleased about
that. It was very warm so the refreshments on the route were
as welcoming as the hosts.
