Wickham Bishop's woman's charity pilgrimage is completed
An opera organiser has completed a gruelling two month pilgrimage from France to Rome.
Ann Bishop, of Bouncers Farm, in Wickham Bishops, and her friends Francesca Sirette, Lucy Coyne and Ben Bragley set off in August from Reims, in France, along the Via Francigena pilgrimage route through France and Italy, in a cart pulled by her three ponies Pebbles, Samson and Captain Jack Sparrow.
Miss Bishop, who is raising money for the Alzheimer's Society, in memory of her mother, Olga, who died in 2006, and her other friends who have also been affected by dementia, said: “It was beautiful."
