Dominic Arkwright meets the senior citizens who have used their bus passes to take to the high road.

Parishioners of St. Edburgs Church, Bicester, wanted a novel way to support their 900-year-old church and raise funds for a much-needed 拢1m refurbishment. With very little experience of adventuring far by bus, they set out to travel from Canterbury to York, staying with fellow christians along the way. It was a journey that would change their views on bus travel and on the great British countryside. As one pilgrim puts it; " This week has been one of the most memorable, humbling and happy weeks of my life. God was certainly looking down on us.".
