WSG meets Olympic Hero

Wow - what an exciting morning we had today!

 

This morning we were incredibly lucky to be invited to meet Tom Daley, Olympic gold medallist, as he cycled through our villages this morning as part of a fundraising challenge for Comic Relief.

Tom’s challenge is an epic cycling, swimming, rowing and running journey from London to Plymouth and we were so impressed when he told us how far he had already cycled today when we met him for a quick pit stop! 

It was fantastic to meet such an inspiring role model and it was such an amazing experience for us all! 

Thank you so much to Tom for being so generous with your time (and for answering our questions about what you eat for breakfast!) and to Comic Relief and the BBC for inviting us to be part of your adventure! 

Thank you too to The Drovers for the amazing hospitality and refreshments! 

A huge well done to Tom - we will still be cheering you on as you continue your epic challenge!
