The Huddersfield Daily Examiner printed a story about our walk yesterday. They even published the photo (although they had to crop round my head as it was too big for the page).
It was interesting to see what they used out of the press release I wrote and what they didn’t. They missed out the list of people who are coming, which was a shame, but I suppose space was limited. We took up three quarters of a page as it was.
Still it’s all good publicity, both for the walk and the charity as a whole. I sent the press release off to a couple of other papers too so we’ll see if anything comes of those.
Congratulations. Today the Examiner, tomorrow… The Slawit Sentinel!

That is really awesome, Dan. I’m so proud that I know someone so famous and for such a wonderful cause.
Congratulations! Great job. I hope the publicity brings in loads of donations.
I had a great comment until I saw Adam’s spelling and lost the plot!
Congratulations on the PR, that’s fabulous! Don’t forget us little people when you’re all famous and stuff ;o)
