Day Walks in the Cotswolds

Judy Mills’ love for the English countryside grew when she moved to a small Somerset village at the age of nine. After studying ecology at university, she found that jobs where she could sit in a field counting flowers were hard to come by, so spent thirty years in the police service, leading voluntary working holidays with the National Trust in her spare time. A keen but slow runner she completes a couple of marathons each year as well as taking part in the annual Cotswold Way Relay. She enjoys walking and horse riding, and in 2014 cycled from Land’s End to John o’Groats. She lives with her husband in Gloucestershire where they keep sheep and beef shorthorn cattle.
