Syd on a cross-channel ferry in 1967 with Pink Floyd (© Pink Floyd Music Ltd.)Back on February 20th, we told you that a group of Syd Barrett fans and associates of Escape Artists will be walking from London to Cambridge to raise money for the Syd Barrett Fund - a distance of some 60 miles. When Syd left London and returned home to Cambridge at the beginning of the eighties he decided to walk the whole way, and next weekend the Syd Barrett Memorial Walk will take place to commemorate that.

If you would like to support the team of walkers then please visit www.justgiving.com/sydbarrettwalk. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it's the most efficient way to donate - they raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
