SETTLE Rotary Club will hold its eighth saunter on Saturday, June 11.

The annual walking/running event takes entrants through picturesque rural villages and hamlets and swathes of countryside.

Proceeds from this year's event will help Settle Swimming Pool, the Clapham-based Cave Rescue Organisation and the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

Registration, as well as the start and finish of the event, is at the Victoria Hall, Settle, and there are four possible routes, ranging in length from nine to 22 miles.

There are checkpoints with light refreshments along the way and a hot savoury meal is provided at the end. Badges and certificates on completion are included in the entry fee.

Further details and entry forms are available on the club’s website settlerotary.org or from Derek Coultherd on 015242 51215.
