Caroline Johnson Sponsored Walk

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

On 17th November 2009, Caroline Johnson, who is a fitness instructor from Verwood, Dorset, suffered a serious fall when her horse ‘Flash’ was spooked by a dog at Moors Valley Country Park.
She suffered a broken neck and broken back and was rescued by the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance.
To thank these wonderful people for their amazing work and to ‘give back’ for their tremendous help on that unfortunate day, Caroline is organising a sponsored walk to raise funds for this charity (which has no government funding).
The walk will start at Potterne Park in Verwood to Moors Valley Country Park on Sunday 25th April 2010.
The route is six miles or a shorter three mile route is also on offer.
Walkers aim to set off between 10am & 12noon.
Anyone wishing to take part should contact Caroline on 01202 814668.
