WALKERS raised almost £100 for the Marie Curie charity by taking part in an annual fundraiser on Saturday.

The walk from Wybunbury was led by Chris Barratt, chairman of the South Cheshire fundraising group for Marie Curie.

Julie Molyneux from Cheshire East Council Countryside Ranger Service assisted and gave advice relating to the varied flora and fauna along the six-mile circular walk.

The walk took place in sunny weather and was enjoyed by 12 people, who gave a donation to Chris for Marie Curie at the end of the walk.

Chris said: “We had a very enjoyable walk in the beautiful countryside surrounding Wybunbury and, at the same time raised nearly £100 for the charity.

“Next year’s walk in the Bickerton area is already being planned.”
