| Tuesday 25th February Saxton 8 miles grade 1/2 9.30 start CHANGE OF WALK | |
|
Led by Jane M.
Joint venture with the U3A Extra walking group. Due
to the risk of flooding in the Nun Monkton area, Jane
has changed her originally scheduled walk
to a safer more local route. This
walk starts at Saxton Church (LS24 9PY) where there is
plenty of roadside parking and we should be ready to set off around
9.50am. We will
leave the village on
Cotchers Lane and complete the Towton Battlefield circuit returning via
Saxton. We then
pick up the path to Lead
Church and Low Lead before returning to Saxton.
There is an opportunity to leave the walk after the
first 5 mile circuit
if anyone prefers a shorter walk.
The
route is mainly flat, no stiles with a couple of short stretches on
road and
some parts will be muddy. |

| Contacting the Emergency Services | |
|
This YouTube
video covers two vital things you should know about if you
need to contact the Emergency Services on a mobile phone when out
walking. One is on using 112 rather than 999 to contact them
(far better, for reasons explained in the video). The other
is about using a text message if you can't get a phone signal.
The link also appears on our Club Downloads page, along with the earlier advice about using a text message in an emergency.
