Reflection by Sally-Jane Coode


Looking back over the past three weeks the overall feeling is of a fantastic experience, and enjoyed in the company of Bryan. Our friends all the way round the county made our journey possible, and it could not have been accomplished without their kindness and hospitality. The generosity of strangers too was humbling, as they filled Bryan’s Merlin collecting tin. Several parts of the Cornish coast were not familiar to us, and seeing it all in wonderful sunshine was a real privilege, and made us very grateful that we lived in such a beautiful place. There were a few times when one more set of steps seemed insurmountable, but they were rare, and there was never any doubt that we would complete the journey. From the start we aimed to raise £10K for the Merlin Project, and it is looking as though we will exceed this figure – so a big thank you to all who helped contribute to a really worthwhile cause and for making the whole experience a truly memorable one.
