    Exactly, Catherine! This is what we need right now, people coming together and not making more of a mess as it already is in this world.

    Here is an article on the Walk for Peace for those who want to know more.

    In my experience Catherine the world is far more full of generous and willing people than some would have us believe!

    The long walk from Jarrow (2017) book by Stuart Maconie is as thought-provoking as it is heart-warming. It's sometimes very funny too. It's meticulously researched and describes the experience of people involved with The Jarrow Crusade/March (1936). That was a similar protest here about poverty and unemployment, and the people involved found similar generosity across the country.

    If you Googly it I'm confident lots of similar things have been done all over the world.

    Good luck

    😺
