Wife of Bath completes Walk

And so, The Sixteen's Choral Pilgrimage Charity Walk comes to an end. Welcomed by the Dean of Canterbury and with a short ceremony at Thomas à Becket's memorial, followed by a splendid lunch, the core team of walkers were joined yesterday by some 12 other supporters of The Sixteen. Countertenor Ian Aitkenhead had canvassed opinion on which of the Chaucer's pilgrims he should dress up as for the final leg, and, perhaps not surprisingly, the Wife of Bath won the vote.

Yuo can still donate to the two charities The Sixteen has been supporting: World Vision and the Save Canterbury Cathedral appeal. If you would like to sponsor the walk go to our special Just Giving pages: World Vision and Canterbury Cathedral.

Choral Pilgrimage Charity Walk - Day Two


The Sixteen's Choral Pilgrimage Charity Walk enters its second day today. Harry and the other walkers left Box Hill this morning, heading along the North Downs Way towards Mertsham. They started from Guildford Cathedral yesterday and will reach Canterbury Cathedral in a week's time. The Sixteen is raising money for two charities (not itself!): World Vision and the Save Canterbury Cathedral appeal.
