These boots are made for walking

Shropshire Young Farmers swapped their wellies for walking boots in aid of the local air ambulance with a 'Walk to the Welsh'.

They did a sponsored 60-mile walk from Shrewsbury to Builth Wells – coping with floods along the way – in three days.

What started off as a suggestion one night in the pub by county chairman Peter Richards ended up being completed by 14 members.

The purpose of the walk was to raise money for the ‘Flying Doctor’ appeal - and the total raised to date is £3,500.
