IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Because of the hot weather on Saturday, with temperatures reaching 31 degrees, we don't feel it would be safe to complete the full 25k walk to St Pauls Cathedral.
We know there may be some disappointment, especially for those who have been looking forward to this for some time (we are too!). But we prioritise safety above everything else and want to make sure everyone is protected.
Thank you for your understanding.

NEW ROUTE
We will still be meeting at 10am at St Barnabas Church.
From there we will walk together to Strawberry Vale (~40 mins) where we will get to see the estate Hope North London is based and hear some more about what we do. You'll also be treated to fresh drinks, snacks and ice lollies!
We will then head through the Grange estate (another community Hope North London is working on) and on towards Parliment Hill (~1.5 hours) through mostly shaded areas. Here, we will be able to see our original destination(!) and eat our packed lunches together.
To finish, we are offering free rides back to St Barnabas Church in the Hope North London minibus!

SAFETY
Please make sure you bring a water bottle, slather yourself in suncream, and wear a hat.
We will have first aiders, first aid kits, blister plasters and extra water.

This is a great opportunity to come together and show support for those who are in need. The walk is open to everyone and is suitable for all ages and fitness levels. Whether you're a seasoned walker or just looking for a fun day out, we welcome you to join us.
