RESIDENTS from Llanidloes put on their walking boots on Saturday, 18 June to support the annual Rotary Across Wales Walk. The event stretched 42 miles from the Welsh coast to the English border. The youngest walker to attempt the full distance was local lad Robbie Cummings. The checkpoints had been briefed to encourage Robbie along the way, but were amazed at this 13-year-old’s plucky courage and fantastic sense of humour. Robbie, who was accompanied by his mum Joanne, walked the full distance and family members walked the last few miles. Robbie and his mum Joanne are pictured above.Llanidloes sisters Elaine O’Brien and Donna Gamble (right) walked the Staylittle stretch covering 28 miles. The sisters were walking in aid of their school friend and in doing so raised an impressive £1,993 towards her cancer treatment. The girls would like to thank everyone who donated towards their cause making the blisters worthwhile.The Rotary club put in a presence this year with past president Alun Moses walking the full distance for Marie Curie and Rotarian Paul Jones as the official back marker.
