Wow!!! To date (26th July 2010) we have seen over £136,000 in sponsorship flood in!! Thank you to everyone who has sent their sponsorship in. To those of you who haven't please do send it in ASAP, either via post or phone (01803 217641)....we can't wait to see what the final total is going to be!!

This year 1700 women and 200 volunteers took part in this fantastic event pledging to raise a staggering £170,000 for Rowcroft and Macmillan. We hope that when we add Gift Aid the event may raise in excess of £200,000 for Rowcroft, the South Devon hospice and Macmillan Cancer Support. Such a fantastic amount will make a huge difference to the care that both charities give to people living with cancer and other life-limiting illnesses and the support that is given to their families.

We also owe a huge debt of thanks to the heroic effects of the 200 volunteers, without whom the walk simply would not happen. Our brilliant volunteers worked incredibly hard, from set up, through the night and still managed to keep going to help tidy up in the early morning, leaving Torbay looking as we found it! They also proved to be a great morale boost for our ladies, clapping and cheering them along the way.

Of course, we would never have been able to raise as much money without the generous support of our local business community. Their donations, both in terms of money and gifts, allow us to keep our costs to an absolute minimum. A special thank you goes to our main sponsors, Kitsons who have been supporting the walk since day one.
