Meet the Team: Steve Cox & Tim Cox. (Support car – Andy & Elaine Gathercole). Unfortunately Jordan was unable to join the fundraiser so the team were down to two at the start.
About the fundraiser: Steve says, “the three of us will be walking the length of the Ridgeway from Avebury to Aylesbury (87 miles) on the 18 June 2026. We aim to complete this in one non-stop walk (no overnight stay!). We estimate it will take 36 hours allowing for food stops and comfort breaks.”

This event is particularly special as we are raising funds to install a Changing Places toilet at Freshbrook Church. These facilities are essential for ensuring that everyone in our community, regardless of their needs, can enjoy our events and services comfortably and with dignity.
