As there is no formal canoe trip this year, Richard Stanford, a member at St John’s Methodist Church has pledged to travel down the river Stour from Sudbury to Cattawade in a boat of his own making in order to raise funds for Christian Aid.  He started yesterday (Monday 3rd August) and travelled from Sudbury to Bures ( picture attached) and hopes to continue in 5 stages.  Anyone who wishes to provide sponsorship should contact either Richard via ruthkridge@gmail.com or Christian Aid directly.
