June - July 2005
 		 Granny Beryl, 65 in 2005, is never happier than when out walking in the countryside. She and husband Tony have backpacked thousands of miles, but Tony’s recent ill-health puts him in a support role for the Granny Trek.  Blessed with healthy children and grandchildren, Beryl's fervent wish is to support the children's hospice by motivating grannies everywhere to join her - get sponsored and get moving!

Fritz and Rudi companions Fritz and Rudi are Finnish Lapphunds  8 year-old brothers.  The breed is a fairly recent introduction to the UK, their father having been imported from Finland in the mid-90s.  They are beautiful, gentle, intelligent and immensely strong, descended from a mix of hunting and herding dogs that for centuries helped the Sami people living in the Arctic Circle with the reindeer.

A member of U3A, she organises rambles for the Bridgwater group. She will drive the motor home, as well as joining the circular walks.
