Lance Yates, one of our Church members, together with daughters Helen and Louise, managed to complete a walk across Morecambe Bay recently, and in doing so raised £200 funds for Action for Children. Lance joined 100 other people also walking in aid of Action for Children, and was part of a larger group of around 800 walking for many other charities. He said,” It was quite an experience! But luckily we didn’t get stuck in the quicksand and finished our journey in about four hours”.
Starting out from Arnside and finishing at Kents Bank, the group was led across the dangerous sands of the bay by Cedric Robinson MBE, the Queen's Official Guide since 1963. Cedric goes out on a tractor on the morning of each walk, to place holly bushes to guide the way along a safe route once the tide has receded.
