Huge congratulations to the Cordwainer teams who last weekend heeded the Master’s call to don walking boots and take on the Cumbrian Challenge in aid of the Cordwainer Charity of the Year – Walking With The Wounded. More than 30 Cordwainers trekked up to the Lake District and eight teams tackled the routes.
For some of us, it was painful, but it was a glorious day and most importantly over £17,400 was raised for Walking with the Wounded. It’s not too late to donate via our JustGiving page.
We are so proud of all our walkers, but special mention must go to new Freeman Caroline Townsend and her team from Mandarina Shoes, whose team raised over £7,000. Congratulations are also due to the Master and his doughty Mountain Goats team who were the fastest over-50s on the Tough Route.
Bravo Cordwainers! Doing good whilst acquiring blisters!
