During Lent some parishioners are getting involved with CAFOD's 'The Big Lent Walk', trying to walk an average of 5KM a day.

The CAFOD group aim to put one walk on each week and people are welcome to join in. No money is required. However, there are CAFOD boxes at the back of both churches.

Walk 1

On Tuesday 19 March ten of us enjoyed the sunshine, walking a 5k loop around St Paul's School and Wolviston.

Walk 2

On Wednesday 26 March eleven of us again enjoyed the sunshine, walking a 5k loop around St Paul's School and Wolviston - but the opposite way around. A great walk.
