14/05 – Ramsbottom and Peel Tower

As you may know there are plans to start a walking club as part of Club Fusion, this is in progress and will be up and running shortly. Whilst this is happening the days are getting longer and the sun is getting brighter, it’s time to head out into the hills. Having had some requests to put on walks I’ve decided to start off with a simple formula, I’m going on a walk and you’re welcome to join me. Hopefully this can be used as an opportunity to discover what people would want out of a walking group, for when we have an official launch. For the first walk I thought we’d start with a local route and visit a place I’ve not been to before, Ramsbottom and Peel Tower on Saturday 14th May 2016.
