Title: "Mourne footpath appeal" - anyone heard of it?
Post by: ChuckMcB on July 07, 2010

The NI Mountain Running Association mention it (http://www.nimra.org.uk/events/2010/8/7/seven_sevens/) (they donate profits from the seven sevens to it) but I've not heard of it, nor has Dr. Google (http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=Mourne+footpath+appeal).

Never heard of it either. Still, any organisation doing repair work in the Mournes is a good thing.

Just got an email back from Ian, the NIMRA's secretary, about this. He says:

The Seven Sevens info has been amended - they no longer give to any footpath work, some goes to the Mourne Mountain Rescue team and the rest to a local charity.

So now you know....kinda. :/
