Ramble with Clare

A walk and lunch for up to four people with broadcaster and author Clare Balding

Enjoy a walk with ‘national treasure’ Clare Balding, local resident, frequent visitor to Chiswick House and Gardens, and much decorated broadcaster and author. Join Clare on your own, with a friend, partner or bring the family for a walk through the estate at Chiswick House and Gardens, followed by a scrumptious lunch at the café in Chiswick House Gardens.

Clare says: Chiswick House is one of my favourite haunts in London. It offers a haven for families, walkers, runners and dogs. I love the mixture of wild woodland, cultivated gardens, landscaped parkland, vast lawns for picnics and the lake full of birdlife. I am really looking forward to joining the family of the highest bidder on a walk around the grounds, having a good natter over lunch at the café and offering a signed copy of my latest children's book. It will be great fun!

Learn all about Clare’s life and work – from being maternity cover on Countryfile to covering six Olympic games (including being the BBC’s stand out reporter during the London Olympics in 2012), commentating on the annual Boat Race, presenting Ramblings on Radio 4 and being the star of The Clare Balding Show on which she has interviewed many of the top names in sport, from Frankie Dettori to Lewis Hamilton. Find out too about her love of horses, the countryside, and how she got to be such a legend at the top of her game. Finally, you’ll also take away a signed copy of Clare’s latest children's book The Racehorse Who Learned to Dance.

Clare won a BAFTA Special Award and RTS Presenter of the Year Award for her expert and insightful coverage of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. She is also a best-selling and award-winning author of five books, and an ardent campaigner for better coverage of women’s sport.

Donated by Clare Balding.
