Aston Ingham WI recently welcomed Margaret Roy, who came to talk about Walking the Wye, which she did herself about 11 years ago.

She talked about the history of some of the places she passed on the trail. The Wye is around 136 miles long. A card is stamped along the route, and a certificate is given on completion. The Severn rises in Rhayader, very close to where the Wye rises. Margaret completed the walk in support of MS and the group agreed that she is an inspirational speaker.
