The April Strider – a special issue marking our 50th anniversary – is due to be sent out at the end of March.
It contains lots of stories about how the LDWA was formed and how our challenge events, long distance paths, groups, membership and our flagship Hundred event have evolved and grown over the years.
There are special stories about Hannah Steer – granddaughter of co-founder Chris – who has joined us this year and has also entered the Trans-Pennine Hundred, and on High Peak LDWA, our first local group. Barbara Blatchford – wife of co-founder Alan – is the subject of the Question Time feature.
We also have stories from the AGM, where several original LDWA members were invited. They are pictured above with Chair Julie Cribb and President Phoebe Smith.
