On Sunday 7th April, Richard Thompson, an employee of Thomas Franks, walked from his home in Swanley, Kent to Wembley Stadium to watch Southend United in the Football League Trophy Final. He collected sponsorship for the walk and has so far raised a wonderful £370.00 for CRY.
“I must begin with a big thank you to all who have supported and sponsored me so far. As it stands, the current total raised is in excess of £350 and still rising!!! The walk was long and arduous, but not too painful – although it did need the medicinal values of a hot bath and a “large” G & T to aid recovery, particularly as my beloved Southend United lost!
“The snapshot below is a copy of the route taken. It is not the most direct, but certainly the most ‘pedestrian-friendly’.”
