Brian Holt manager Jane Canning donated £100 for every new instruction she received in August and September – a pound for every mile of Jane’s walk from every seller – and so far has raised £1,000.
She said: “I have nothing but admiration for Jane and the team. Barely able to walk for crippling blisters, Jane and her fellow companions made the finish line in the pretty village of Middleton Cheney.
“We’re so glad so many of our customers decided they wanted to help us raise money for this very worthwhile cause.”
