Doncaster Rambler’s Press Release – A Local walk from Epworth Today’s walk, if anything, was about people. And it started as soon as a two or three gathered in the car park outside Holme & Garden Centre Epworth. In the bright sunshine spontaneous chatter began and continued throughout this 3 hour ramble. It was a joy to witness as more and more gathered, some new faces, some returners, even some from other clubs, all breaking out in lively conversation. It was almost impossible to break in with our usual Covid announcement! Eventually that done fourteen set off on our six and half mile walk to the west of Epworth. There was definitely a heightened level of excitement as most had not been in this area before, and many were now used to this Friday morning jaunt by Doncaster Ramblers.

The route took us east a short distance passing St Andrews Church whose Rector The Rev Samuel Wesley was father to John and Charles Wesley, indeed Epworth is know as “The Home of Methodism” Turning south along the Peatland Way, which runs along the edge of the village then out into open country. At times it felt like being below sea level well only a foot or two above anyway, as the sandy soil was reminiscent to walking on the beach. Now heading west we made our way towards Epworth Turbary Nature Reserve, via a disused railway tunnel, and several field edges.

All the while conversation were going on in the background.

Reaching the Nature Reserve we stopped for a short coffee and snack break on a patch of grass allowing some social distancing. Suitably fortified the return journey took us passed a series of fields containing pigs, lots of pigs, some inquisitive enough to venture over. Though unlike cows and horses, no-one attempted petting these porkers. Mind you there was an electric fence keeping us apart. Moving on now eastwards following the Ingham Drain to reach the norther outskirts of Epworth. The journey not yet over we rose to the 50ft highpoint of our walk now back on the Peatland Way to view two magnificent former windmills (used maybe by Dutchman Sir Cornelius Vermuyden to drain the area). The walk ended with a dreamy march through a narrow avenue of trees back to the Garden Centre.

Rules continue to change regarding outdoor exercise and group activity so please visit our website https://www.doncasterramblers.org.uk/ for latest, including future activity. Also follow us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/doncasterramblers/ for details of past Rambler outings.

Remember while out observe social distancing, carry a mask, hand sanitiser, and gloves. Obey the

VIRTUAL BALLOON RACE RAISES OVER £3,500 FOR AIR AMBULANCES

As part of fundraising activities for the 3 air ambulances operating across their area (Yorkshire; Great North; and Lincolnshire & Nottinghamshire), the North East England Trefoil Guild region have raised over £3,500 from a virtual balloon race. The balloon race was supported by individuals from all parts of England and the worthy winner had participated “because a friend had owed his life to a ride in the helicopter from Cumbria to Newcastle”.

Girlguiding Units across the Region from Rainbows (aged 5) to Trefoil Guild (aged 18+) are also working towards an Air Ambulance Challenge for which, when completed, they will receive a badge.

The challenge comprises 3 Sections: Flight and Science Navigation and Communication First Aid and Safety Plus one fund-raising activity for the Air Ambulance It is hoped with this and other fund raising initiatives to raise a sizeable sum to help maintain this valuable service.
