Country Walking reader, Tim Midwinter from Swindon, Wiltshire, won October 2010 Star Letter. Country Walking magazine awarded Tim the Star Letter award for his piece on a weeks family walking holiday around the Isle of Wight Coastal Path. The benefits of getting away with the family seemed to destress all involved and improve family conversations.
As a reward Tim won a pair of the new Meindl Kansas GTX leather walking boots with Gore-Tex waterproof lining.
