Thames Bridges Trek
Walton Charity has raised over £10,000* for The Bridge community hub!
What is The Bridge?
At The Bridge, we provide families with access to fresh food, enabling them to prepare nutritious meals. Additionally, we collaborate with our partners to offer a range of support services, including financial advice, debt management, and assistance in finding employment.
What was the Thames Bridges Trek?
On Saturday 14 September, a team of 7, made up of staff, volunteers and trustees, joined 2,500 walkers to trek 25k across the capital with unrivalled views of the skyline & landmarks.
As part of our efforts to raise £10,000 we signed up as a listed charity of the 2024 Ultra Challenge Series Thames Bridges Trek.
Our team started at Putney Bridge before heading towards the city, then had a mid-point rest at The Oval Cricket Ground for snacks and a drink. They then continued the walk to Tower Bridge and the finish line, where they enjoyed an afternoon picnic in Southwark Park.
The total amount raised from the trek so far is…
£6,058
Well done Nina, Suzy, Louise, Jeannette, Vicki, Hayley and Andrea!
