EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print captured in September 1992, we are transported back to Fowey, Cornwall, where a group of dedicated individuals from the Fowey Weightlifting Club embark on an extraordinary journey for a noble cause. Pictured here are Louis Hunkin and Glynn Wellington, two brave members of the club who will be cycling and walking their way from John O Groats in Scotland all the way down to Lands End in Cornwall. With printed jumpers proudly displaying their sponsors' logos, these determined fundraisers are raising much-needed funds for Barnardos, Cornwall Leukaemia Trust, and local Lions charities. Their goal is to cover an impressive distance of 889 miles over just 20 days while averaging 30 miles per day on their bicycles and an additional 15 miles by foot. Accompanied by support drivers Mike Elliott and Andrew Barley, this inspiring team showcases true camaraderie as they set off on this arduous yet rewarding adventure. The minibus with a roof rack stands ready to provide assistance whenever needed throughout their challenging journey. This photograph encapsulates the spirit of charity and community that thrives within Cornwall. It serves as a reminder that even small towns can make a big impact when united towards a common goal. Let us applaud these selfless individuals who have chosen to push themselves beyond limits for the betterment of others.
