Colourful Trees And Lake Views

LIVING WITH CANCERSTROLLERS

 

Spirits were not dampened by the autumn rainfall at Cosmeston; the colourful trees and lake views would brighten anyone’s day. The living with cancer strollers chatted happily as they made their way around puddles. Hot drinks for all at the end of the walk…not an ice cream in sight!

 

Great Turnout At Cosmeston

LIVING WITH CANCERSTROLLERS

A great turnout for the walk at Cosmeston. The grey skies didn’t dampen the enthusiasm for strolling leisurely around the lakes. And thanks to Sandra who was celebrating her 80th birthday, for the birthday treats. A walk around a lake or two, is a great way to celebrate!!

 

 

The Three Lakes Challenge

LIVING WITH CANCERSTROLLERS

Forget the three peaks challenge this was the three lakes challenge, though there was some debate over whether the dragonfly patch of water counted as a pond or lake! Jill brought along some cake refreshments to celebrate her birthday which a welcome excuse for a break on a warm day

Giant Hogweed Warning

GIANT HOGWEED WARNING

Just a reminder to walkers, especially now it seems summer has finally come, to be wary of Giant Hogweed when you are out in the country especially if you have your children with you. The picture below shows a young girl who suffered 2nd degree burns after coming into contact with Giant Hogweed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cosmeston Under Blue Sky

LIVING WITH CANCER
STROLLERS

The walkers gathered at Cosmeston under a suitably blue sky to start the jubilee celebrations with their normal monthly walk. There was nothing normal about the walking attire, as walkers were asked to wear red, white and blue, so Union Jack headbands, red trousers, striped t shirts and blue hats were dragged out of wardrobes. Some walkers even made crowns, adorned with elaborate jewels, fake of course! Bakewell tarts, being red and white, were enjoyed towards the end of the walk…

 

Another New Walker

 

LIVING WITH CANCER
STROLLERS

Another new walker was welcomed to the group at Cosmeston and was soon chatting to some of the regulars! The regulars now include 2 babies who are carried around the lakes in slings, enjoying the fresh air, flowers and bird song, like everyone else. All ages are welcome, though we cannot promise to transport you!!

 

 

Amazingly Blue Skies

 

LIVING WITH CANCER
STROLLERS

Amazingly blue skies greeted the living with cancer strollers at Cosmeston. Two walkers had reasons to enjoy a celebratory walk, a birthday for one and the end of cancer treatment next week for another. Milestones for both. Another reason to celebrate was the almost complete absence of mud as we strolled around, but Helen did manage to point out one large muddy patch which the group navigated skilfully around
