Imber walk in aid of Wessex MS Therapy Centre

A MULTIPLE-Sclerosis treatment centre is organising it 10th annual sponsored walk to the ghost village of Imber.

The walk for the Wessex MS Therapy Centre will allow people to tread the rarely trod route to the ghost village which has been devoid of inhabitants since 1943.

The MS Centre, which is based in Warminster, caters for patients from a wide area including the Andover.

"For half a century the Army's Imber Range on Salisbury Plain has been closed to the public, and more than 16,000 acres of magnificent countryside lost to walkers and nature lovers," said centre manager Sally Ann Booth.

"Imber has become a secret place. This walk is prestigious and unique to the Centre and has been made possible for us each year since 2003."

The walk is not until September but an information pack can be obtained on 01985 217728 or e-mail wessesms@btconnect .com
