SUMMARY:The Forces March
DESCRIPTION:The Forces March is a recreation of an epic 135-mile WW2 training march from Ilfracombe\, North Devon to Bulford\, Wiltshire. \nThe 1942 march was undertaken by men who would go on to spearhead the entire D-Day liberation with the assault on Pegasus Bridge \nOpen to runners and walkers\, military and civilians\, teams and individuals\, The Forces March is not a race – it’s an adventure! The event attracts people from all backgrounds and abilities who are inspired by the cause\, the scenery and the challenge. Many return year after year having enjoyed the truly unique event and an incredible bond which forms between those taking part. \nStarting from Ilfracombe Seafront the Forces March is one of the UK’s adventures and is held every year in aid of The Veterans Charity. The event follows the route of the legendary and arduous training march created when the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry were sent to Devon to train during World War Two and it was then decided to march the entire regiment back to Bulford\, naturally the event became fiercely contested between the companies. \nFrom Ilfracombe\, through Exmoor\, rural Somerset\, over the Quantock Hills\, across the Somerset Levels and then finally across Salisbury Plain to the finish at Bulford – a total of 134 miles – each stage will be at least 26.2 miles in length – that’s five full marathons in five days! Runners – Walkers – Hand Cyclists – Teams & Individuals all take part. \nThe Forces March is a unique\, life-changing event in which more than 1000 people have participated raising over £500\,000 to support veterans facing hardship and distress. All funds raised go to The Veterans Charity – Please support the marchers as they pass.

SUMMARY:Ilfracombe Art Trail
DESCRIPTION:The Ilfracombe Art Trail is an independent collaboration of artists\, makers and galleries all located in Ilfracombe\, mostly within a 20 minute walk of the High Street. We’ve even got a couple of venues well worth visiting a short drive away in Berrynarbor\, Ilfracombe. \nOur Art Trail provides an opportunity to visit venues of your choosing\, talk to artists and discover all things new and surprising! There are paintings\, sculpture\, photography\, jewellery\, printing\, textiles\, leather\, ceramics and much more. With our easy to follow map and guide you can discover art in some quirky places\, most within just a short walk of the High Street. \n\nCome and enjoy the work of local artists as well as some from further afield. Wander through our Victorian streets and contemplate the wide range of art on offer. You can even pause at some of the venues for tea and cake or visit one of the amazing artisan cafes around the town. \n\n\nAn open studio is a place where art is the focus\, offering visitors the opportunity to speak directly with the artist or just ponder and admire the works on show. For an artist\, it is the pleasure of talking with visitors and hopefully making valuable connections. \nThere is also\, of course\, the opportunity to purchase work and obtain information about artists’ events or courses\, if they have them to offer. \n\nThe Art Trail is a non-profit organisation\, predominantly paid for by participation fees. It is administered by a small team of volunteer members.
