Clevedon Charity walk with meal

Charity Most of you know Mafe who is a member of our walking group. She owns the Butterflies Cafe in Clevedon and has offered to host a private social event in her cafe after the hike. Mafe will be creating a range of Asian delights - including meat, fish and vegetarian dishes and it will be served as buffet help yourself meal. She intends to include a desert too and there will be coffee and tea available. You are welcome to bring your own alcohol/soft drinks for the event and there is a Sainsbury’s Local opposite the cafe if you need to make any purchases. There is also a cash machine located here. We are asking for a minimum cash donation of £18 although the more money we raise the better!! The chosen charity is Friends of Bristol Haematology & Oncology Centre (Registered charity 264136) - in memory of Mafe’s husband. They focus entirely on enhancing the treatment environment and providing direct support to patients and families at BHOC. As the main aim of this event is to raise money, when signing up it is expected that you will attend the whole event and ask if you are unable to join for the meal afterwards that the donation is still given. Parking & departure We will be meeting on Dial Hill Road by Zig Zag path. This is next to a bus stop and an iconic art deco house (see photo below). Please note that Dial Hill Road is a long road so best to use What3Words or if you look for where the Kings Rd junction you should find us! Please park respectfully in nearby residential roads. ///dust.odds.heat https://w3w.co/dust.odds.heat The cafe can host up to 40 people. Therefore, we are planning to complete the walk in two groups to reduce numbers on the pathway at a given time. We will meet at 10:15am and when the first 20 are in attendance they will leave with the remainder of the party leaving at 10:30am. Walk This is a 6.5 mile varied trail taking you along the coastal path and returning through the farmlands and woodlands. Weather permitting, there will be panoramic views across the Gordano Valley and the Severn Estuary to the Welsh hills beyond the water. For those who recently completed the Gordano Loop, please note that for the part on the costal path we will be traveling in the opposite direction which gives a completely different perspective. Pace of walk For those new to the group, please consider the distance we are walking and the pace. We tend to average 3 miles per hour on varied terrain. Feel free to message walk lead directly if you wish to discuss further. Dogs Due to some restrictive stiles the walk is only suitable for small/medium sized dogs. The coastal path in places is narrow so dogs need to be on a short lead here. WEATHER If bad weather is forecast, the walk will be cancelled the day before. If the weather is horrendous on the day it will be cancelled on the morning of the walk, by 8:00 am PLEASE CHECK THE EVENT DETAILS ON THE WEBSITE OR APP BEFORE YOU LEAVE FOR THE If you can’t make the event, please amend you RSVP asap to allow those on the waiting list can attend.
