WHEN a ring fell off Julian Walshaw’s finger during the London Marathon he didn’t think he’d ever get it back.
But to his delight and after a viral post on Facebook, he has been reunited with the ring this week.
It had been given to him by his aunt Sheila Roebuck before she died last year. He was mortified when it fell off but Julian had no choice but to keep running.
“When there are 36,000 people behind you, you can’t just turn back and go looking for it, so I just carried on.”
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
