A PEEBLES businessman will be ‘walking the walk’ and ‘talking the talk’ across Tweeddale for two local causes.
Robin Tatler, chairman of Peebles Community Council will make the journey from Clovenfords to Peebles, stopping off for a quick blether and a brew along the way next Saturday.
The event aims to raise funds for Tweeddale Youth Action and Peebles CAN.
Robin plans to call in at three coffee mornings/afternoons in Walkerburn, Innerleithen and Cardrona en route, collecting funds from which will also go towards to the charities.
Robin said: “I thought it would be fun to show that I can walk the walk as well as talk the talk. I hope to meet and chat to lots of people during the day and, more importantly, raise lots of money for these two excellent charities that support our young people.
"Please contact me if you would like to walk with me or make a donation.”
