The bunkhouse has plenty of places for the 23rd may & the 24th may so far prices are £12.50 to £14 per night per person. so anyone who is def going would be best to book here. There is an Inn attached to the bunkhouse that does food or you can do your own at the bunkhouse.
Once a date is set i will be making my booking & suggest others do so as well. As had been said on the site May is a busy month so this is the perfect time to book in advance. You can even make a provisional booking & if you have to cancel up to 7 days before it you can get a refund
Hope this helps

have we not got a date yet? I'm away in may for 2 weeks so unlikely to be able to make it, will be happy to throw in some sponser money though.
Another thing...is this going to be solely a wigan warriors walk or has anything been discussed with warrington fans?
Considering sending some details over to a contact I have at Sky to see if they could give it some coverage on Boots n All etc, even if its just a mention - will see what i can do.

232rd or 24th of May & iv been in touch with Phil Clarke But any help you can give will be great thanks
Its not been mentioned before about Warrington fans taking part But iv not got a problem with it as the more Publisity we can get the better. But id like to hear what the fans on here think first.
Im only saying this as we were the only ones who had the intention of doing the walk prior to mike's sudden death. Hope that doesnt sound nasty as thats not my intent.
