To date the just giving page currently stands at £2,187 and the final amount will be confirmed at a later date. The target is £5000 so Ian can name a Guide Dog puppy and give someone the freedom and independence to live their best life.
Ian walked 2,200,000 steps averaging 13 hours a day only stopping at his evening accommodation. This charity walk has been fully self funded by Ian so every penny donated goes to the Guide Dogs, a truely, selfless and remarkable gesture. Below just a couple of the many pictures taken of Ian's arrival, an absolute legend!
IAN'S WALKIES
Ian West completed his mammoth fundraising walk from Nottingham to Cabanas, in the aid of The Guide Dogs Foundation on 3rd October, arriving at Pedras LBC at 1:30pm to a rapturous applause from friends, fellow bowlers and Senhor Pires.
Here is the link to his page 'Ian's Walkies' at https://www.justgiving.com which is still live and where you can make a donation.
GREEN FEES
Bowlers who are liable to pay green fees each time they play are requested to do so before starting play. The bar staff will issue a ticket/receipt which must be carried and available for inspection while on the green. Failure to observe this requirement could result in the green fee payable being increased to €100. Bowlers are reminded that any green fee paid entitles the bowler to play throughout the day subject to rink availability.
