The Cambridge branch of the WHW IC did a 25km march yesterday for the brilliant Finley’s Touch charity yesterday.
Great fun, hard work, and along the way we looked at the work of the SOE around Tempsford and Gibraltar farm.

Everything is ready for the We Have Ways IC march for Finleys Touch at RAF Tempsford tomorrow.
Guidance for our mission will be provided by agents on the ground.
There’s no heading back. We’re on our way
It’s going to be #epic 😉

Final preparations are nearly complete for the Cambridge IC march for Finleys Touch at RAF Tempsford on Sunday.
We’ll hear about Special Duties Squadrons, News of the War and agents who left a sleepy Bedfordshire village to “set Europe ablaze”.

We're counting down the days until our March for Finleys Touch at Tempsford.
Rather than 'Setting Europe Ablaze', our explorers will be desperately looking for a pub!
Please support this wonderful charity by donating whatever you can afford.
Thank you 🙏
