It is with the most profound sadness that Thames Valley report the sudden and untimely death of Steve Singleton. He died of a heart attack while walking in his beloved Lake District over the Christmas break. Steve was a very proactive member of our group and led numerous walks for both Thames Valley and London. He entered numerous challenge events annually during which time he made many new friends and acquaintances. He always knew exactly where he was on walks, as he followed every walk on his maps that he carried. He also organised an annual weekend in the Lake District which was always well attended. He was a kind, gentle man who at times seemed quite shy but was an experienced walker and navigator in many types of terrain.

Steve was due to lead a joint walk with the London Group on Saturday 23rd February. The walk will go ahead as planned and will be led by Duncan MacGregor as an opportunity for Steve's friends in both groups to remember him in a way of which he would have approved.

We will all miss him very much.
