Willsons Take on the Dare 2b Rutland CiCLE Tour
We would like to wish Mark, and his team a huge congratulations for taking part in the Dare 2b Rutland CiCLE Tour last Saturday! The event allowed cyclists to chose from 4 routes, 21 miles, 57 miles, 78 miles and the hardest route, the 105 miles. Out of the four options the team decided to go for hardest route, the 105 miles!
The track ventured not only through Rutland, but also cycled through Leicestershire and Northamptonshire. Although this route was the toughest route to cycle, along the way the team managed to see some amazing views, passing by places such as Rutland Water, the Vale of Belvoir, Belvoir Castle, Eyebrow Reservoir and Harrington Viaduct.

Praise from the Friends of Monksthorpe Baptist Church
Willsons have recently completed the print and dispatch of some booklets, flyers and posters for the Monksthorpe Baptist Church and are delighted to have received high praise from our customer.
“So, many thanks for the booklets, well printed. I particularly appreciated the triple scoring of the spines so that they lie flat. I had already guessed the increase for the extra colour pages to within a pound or two, so no problem there. Thank you too for the flyers and posters. To my surprise, 120 rather than 100 of the two shorter booklets were delivered!”
