Attention Walkers

23 Apr

Well Saturday 26 April is nearly here and it’s nearly time for our walk in Belfast. Here is all the information you need to know.

We will be meeting at the first location of the walk which will be the Titanic Memorial Garden at City Hall. There is a statue right outside the City Hall and we will meet at the front of that. We’ll be there from 9.45am and aim to start the walk by 10.3oam at the latest. In case you weren’t sure of the significance of the first location to Gillian, she attended a ceremony at the gardens in 2012 commemorating the 1o0th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic.

The walk will be approx 10 miles long, however since none of us have ever been to any of these locations before there may be a chance we’ll get lost so it may end up being slightly longer.  Make sure you have some sensible and comfy shoes and blister plasters in case you need them. Also you may want to bring some sandwiches and a bottle of water with you as we aren’t sure if we will be near any food places at lunchtime due to the route.

If you haven’t already please let Cathy or Clare (walk organisers) have a contact phone number for you in case for some reason we are late on Saturday or we get parted from someone. You can PM this to either of us on Facebook or email gacharitywalk@yahoo.co.uk.

You are welcome to join or leave the walk at any point during the day – all we ask is that you let Cathy or Clare know so they know you aren’t lost.

The lovely Cathy is currently sorting out our route for Saturday but we will definitely be visiting locations from The Fall and The Mighty Celt along the way including some that were given to us by Gillian herself which we are so thankful for.

Don’t forget to bring a camera or a good phone with a camera on as it’s always good to share pictures of our event to show what a great time we had whilst raising money for such a good cause. Last year SA+Yes included some of their photos in their newsletter as well.

Can’t wait to meet everyone on Saturday. See you then :).
