A CLEHONGER woman has set off on her 17 day challenge to walk the entire boundary of Herefordshire.
Linda Bishop started off yesterday from Kington town centre, accompanied by a band of wellwishers.
Councillor Bob Widdowson, mayor of Kington, said: “Kington is delighted to start Linda on this amazing walk. We hope that on the journey she gathers lots of support for an extremely good cause," he said.
"We look forward to welcoming her back on the May 26.”
The Beating Boundaries Challenge has been almost a year in the making, with Linda and her supporters mapping most of the route themselves.
Linda aims to raise £25,000 for a specialist complementary therapy room at St Michael’s Hospice in Hereford.
