It was a privilege to welcome Al Murray and the gang to the Yachtsmans Arms today after they marched 21 miles supporting Finley's Touch, a charity that helps children with cancer.

Such a genuine and lovely guy!
All of the guys were and what a great thing they are doing for a fantastic cause.

They are raising money to provide financial grants to families to support them during treatment, National Trust memberships to help them get out and about, and Hospital Survival Bags for children undergoing long stays in the hospital.
