A Shared Walk over the Quantock Hills in Somerset on the 26th August 2012
An introduction
Please note:  Our booking system is going LIVE soon. Please drop me an e-mail (via the contact tab) if you would like me to let you know when it's ready. The Trail is inspired by Richard Dawkins' book “The Ancestor's Tale”, subtitled a Pilgrimage to the Dawn of Life. The book rewinds the evolutionary history of our species, and many others, back to our shared origins 3.7 billion years ago...

Booking your place

Participation in the walk itself is FREE, but the event will only run assuming we raise enough funds to cover our costs.  This is done through payment for add-on evening speakers and music/accommodation/bus transport.  As last year, folks invest in our ‘pitch’ hosted on a website called Crowdfunder (based in Exeter). Essentially, we’ll need enough people to invest to cover our pre-determined target sum by a specified date. If reached, this sum not only covers all our expenses, but also allows us to make a contribution to our wildlife charities. If the project fails to make its target ~ everyone gets their money back, so you really don’t have anything to lose. However, we only JUST made our pitch last year (with a little extra help from our friends – thank you Taunton Humanists) and this year’s target is MUCH bigger, so we’ll need to attract more investors. Please forward our event details to anyone else you think might be interested to help us make the 2012 event happen.

Follow this link (when it’s ready! – soon) to our ‘pitch’ on their website and then invest via pay-pal. The package you choose dictates what you get.

In the meantime, drop me an e-mail (via the contact tab) if you would like me to let you know when the pitch goes live.
