SUMMARY:Join me on a  stroll in support of Sands
DESCRIPTION:Join me for a Stroll in the Vale of Pewsey\nI am taking on the walk 100k in September in support of the Sands charity. Join me for a scenic stroll in support of SANDS. Explore beautiful paths while raising awareness and funds for stillbirth and neonatal death charity. \nThis is not a formal guided walk or tour\, rather an invitation to join me for a Roam whilst doing a little segment of my 100K. \nHow far is it\nThis is only a segment\, and it’s not going to be a yomp up the hills. Depending on the weather and how enthusiastic we feel\, I estimate between 3 – 6 miles (5 – 10 Kilometres). This will be within the vale\, so no big hills to ascend. \nDo I need to pay?\nNo\, this is not a guided walk or talk\, just a wander about. So you will be fully responsible for your equipment\, etc. Don’t forget to bring your water & snacks\, plus appropriate clothing. \nDo I need to donate?\nNo. This is just an invitation to join me and hopefully meet a few other people who enjoy the countryside and being outdoors. \nWhere? When?\n10AM. Royal Oak\, Pewsey. Get there a bit earlier if you fancy a Breakfast or a beverage.  We can meet at the side entrance on the entry to the Car Park. \nWe will return to the Oak\, where Victuals will be available for purchase. \nQuestions?\nPlease feel free to Contact Me about this event only contact the Royal Oak regarding their food and drink offerings. \n

Setting off immediately into the countryside and onward to Jones’s Mill Nature Reserve\, the journey of discovery starts. The morning is spent exploring the plants and their uses. Medicinal\, culinary and otherwise. Their history\, folk law and legends. Their environment\, and numerous other aspects of the plants seen on the day. \nA thoroughly enjoyable opportunity to discover the power of some of our most common\, and often unseen\, companions. \nIn recognition of the amazing work done by the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust\, £8.00 of the ticket price is donated to Wiltshire Wildlife Trust to help them with their work. \nMike will hand over to another guide who will take you to the venue for lunch. \nLunch\nTime to relax and enjoy lunch. 13:00 – 14:30 \nOn this tour\, the luncheon will be a feast of local and seasonal\, in the form of a ploughman’s buffet.

Terrain – gentle gradients. \nThe environment\nAt intervals along the walk\, the environment and ecosystems will be explored. The countryside is varied\, as are the farms and farming techniques employed.  Because of this we will only touch on these subjects. For more in-depth tours relating to the environment\, ecology or farming\, see the Meet the…… tours. \nTea\nWe return to Pewsey and finish with a well-deserved sit-down\, with a cuppa and a cake – or perhaps a cream tea. Stronger options are available behind the bar with an opportunity to sample many local ales\, some produced onsite. \nConclusion\nThose arriving by train will be guided towards the station to greet the penultimate train of the day towards the Capital. A later train is an option\, and some may choose to linger.  If arriving by service bus please make us aware at the start of the day or beforehand so we can ensure that you are at the bus stop in a timely fashion. \nYou have questions\nYou may still have questions or want to know more. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.
