Well done to this amazing team!

It was definitely 'Challenging'! And we're a little achey today. But so valuable in the planning for this year's walk... watch this space!
Yesterday, a team from GW23 HQ walked the route o recce it. A beautiful day & perfect conditions for a 'challenging' route! A valuable exercise to plan the walk, on the route that Dave chose! We are now likely to walk from Borth to Aberystwyth direction! #gordonswalk2023 #bhf

Day 3 of the tour & Wonkey Donkey is up early but looking forward to a relaxing day while his Mum works! He’s living the flat calm ocean though, quit a contrast to his Norway trip! #wonkeydonkeyontour #adventuredonkey

This was my view from the office yesterday, and as I have to drive past @aberdistillery it seemed a shame not to pop in for supplies! A nice finish to a fabulous day!

Woohoo! It’s that ‘sitting outside with the Chiminea on and a glass of wine’ time of year again! Here’s to many more chilled out evenings over the summer!

Back home tired after an amazing weekend! Although this is the 2nd ST course we've run post-Covid, somehow this one just seemed special and a reminder of why I've been a member of this incredible team for nearly 12 years. Will be buzzing from this all week I think! @CheshireSar
Congratulations to all the 17 trainees who have just completed a really intense weekend and successfully passed their Search Technician assessment 👏👏 Also massive thanks to all the faculty who gave up a huge amount of time and effort to plan and deliver the course #TeamAwesome

Trip to the theatre last night to see the World Amateur Premier of Sheila’s Island. So funny and always in awe of the talent & effort it takes to put on a play like this. Thoroughly enjoyed it!
