Mark (L) accepts the big cheque from Jonathan
Cicerone had a packed programme of events at this year’s Outdoor Show at the NEC at the end of March, including a full programme of standing-room-only talks by authors such as Kev Reynolds, Paddy Dillon and Amy-Jane Beer.
We also had a bit of a birthday party to celebrate turning 40 this year, at which Jonathan was proud to present a big cheque for Fix the Fells to Mark Richards. 10p from every copy of Mark’s best-selling Great Mountain Days in the Lake District is being donated to this important project dedicated to rebuilding the much-loved paths of the Lake District National Park for future generations. As we went to the show, the book had sold almost 6,000 copies in its first year, so our donation – the first of many, we hope! – came to a not inconsiderable £595.70.
