WOW is Paul’s Walk on Wales in Doubt?

WOW is Paul’s Walk on Wales in Doubt?

Walk on Wales is the type of event you can do all the planning in the world for to try and get everything right, but when it comes down to it things can be taken out of the hands of the planners by good old Welsh weather! The forecast for the days of the event are not great as you can see if you visit Paul’s Walk on Wales website see the link on the event page. But does this deter him, not a chance. When you think that when most people take on the type of climbs and event that Paul is with walk on wales it is usually around the Longest day of the year 21st June when the weather is a lot more dependable.

So we hear you say why is Paul tackling the climbs at this time of year? Is he Mad, Crazy? The answer to your questions would be yes but not in the way that you think we mean. Mad, Crazy to be taking on the walk on wales at this time of year because Paul is Mad and Crazy about cricket. As both a successful Captain, Player and Coach within Cricket that time of year is smack in the middle of the cricket season so Paul would not even entertain taking this on at that time of year, so it just makes it even harder than it is already.

Walk on Wales – the Charities Paul is supporting

This then brings us on to the two charities that Paul is raising vital funds for whilst carrying out this great walk on wales challenge. The first is something that is extremely close to Paul as the charity is on a “mission to spread the power of cricket throughout schools and communities in England & Wales” so with Paul being so involved in the sport for so many years it is no doubt the reasons this charity has been chosen. You can read and find out more about the charity from the Chance to Shine Website or what Paul has to say about the charity on his Chance to Shine page on the walk on wales website.

The second charity that Paul has chosen is the Llanberis Mountain Rescue due to the amazing work that they do and especially in the area’s that walk on wales covers. They are a voluntary organisation that are on call 24 hours a day 365 days a year and rely on donations from members of the public to carry on the fantastic work which they do you can check the Llanberis Mountain Rescue Website and also read what Paul has to say about them on the Llanberis Mountain Rescue Page on the walk on wales website.

To keep up with the latest on the event Follow Paul on Twitter and keep an eye on the walk on wales website. If you would like to donate to either of the charities and help Paul raise as much as possible for them, the links for the just giving pages for each charity are on the walk on wales website under the Charity pages.

We wish Paul all the Luck and hope the weather is on his side.

The Rally North Wales is only just around the corner. This fantastic event is taking place through Dolgellau and surrounding areas with both Road and stage miles included what more can you ask to see on a Saturday in March.  The first cars will be setting off from centre of Dolgellau at 9am with 6 stages altogether before the return back to Dolgellau for a post-race interview with the winners. These are some of the same stages that have previously been used on the World Rally ChampionshipWales Rally GB with great success so really are world class rally stages which will surely test the amazing ability of this year’s entries.

Events N Wales Launch

The day has arrived, finally it is St. David’s Day and the Events N Wales launch is here. We have been awaiting this day with anticipation and are so glad to finally have the Events N Wales launch and the website live. We would like to thank all those individuals and organisations that have taken up our launch offer to have events listed ready for the Events N Wales launch. Over time our blogs will feature these events as well as events that are added by Silver & Gold members looking into the events in a little more detail and more about the background of them. To give our visitors more of an insight into things like how the events came about, who thought up the ideas or other facts depending on what type of event it is.

Events N Wales Launchevents n wales launch

First we wanted to give you a little insight into Events N Wales. This idea of the website came about after realising that there are many websites around that promote business events, fundraising events, music, arts and all the other categories. What we couldn’t find was a website that both individuals, clubs, schools, businesses or organisations could list events on one website that covered the full range of categories and all areas of wales. Most websites that we came across which had an event listing was either for a set area, or had an events side to a website but not dedicated just too all types of events only in Wales.

We hope that over time the website will become a hub for the general public to check events and also all types of events to be posted. This will take time and we are working on various avenues to create the visitors that we would like to be able to promote all the events that are listed. But all websites start somewhere and we are hoping that the support of the Welsh public along with Businesses, Clubs, Organisations and Individuals that we will grow from strength to strength and now that Events N Wales launch has taken place it will become the place to check and list #EventsNWales.

So we would just like to finish off the launch post by wishing everyone a Happy St. David’s day and hope you enjoy any events that you are attending on this fabulous Day.
