The Big Walk for Charity in the South

We are here at last in 2008 and the year of Just Walk Two. An exciting sponsored walking event for anyone wanting to fundraise for the charity of their choice. This fundraising challenge is open to anyone who is keen to get their walking boots on and hike for charity on England’s South Downs, on Saturday 10th May. It aims to give the maximum benefit to charities, allowing those not able to invest into their own event, an opportunity for their supporters to take part in a fundraising challenge.

2007 was a huge success for our first year:

• Charities | We had over 80 charities involved
• Walkers | Over 300 walkers took part
• Distance | 9,000km was the total distance walked
• ££££ raised | Average amount each walker raised £1,100
• ££££ raised | And helped to raise over £300,000 for charities and worthy causes

In 2008 we have made a couple of changes. The NEW Corporate Team Challenge Cup allows teams the opportunity to compete against other corporate groups on the 60km walk, to win the Corporate Team Cup. Plus instead of a 15km walk we have a 20km walk as well as the usual 60km - further details can be found on the website www.just-walk.co.uk

So the date for your diary is Saturday 10th May 2008 and be part of something fantastic.
