Organiser Bridget Parker said: “Nunney is a wonderful event that is now in its eighth year. We have a fantastic committee who all work hard together to ensure it runs smoothly, and we are extremely fortunate to be able to run at the home of Mrs Angela Yeoman. This year we’ve made some considerable changes to the cross country courses which will give a really fresh feel and we hope that people come along and enjoy a few hours in the countryside watching great sporting action.”
