The walk will pass through Chelmsford, London, St Albans, and Dunstable, finishing in Towcester on Bury Mount at 3.00pm on Sunday 11 June.

The route is that which Boudica took on her final battle against the Romans that it’s believed took place near Towcester.

David Tarbun says: “I like to push myself for charities and I thought this would be a good way to celebrate Towcester’s history, raise the profile of the Town, and importantly raise funds for my charities.
