On Saturday 12th September, join Laura, Jess and Alex in walking 50km in aid of North London Cares.

We are taking part in the Thames Path Challenge; a unique fundraising event which sees over 4,000 challengers walking, jogging or running England's greatest river. Beginning in Putney Bridge and ending in Runnymede, we will be donning our walking boots and trekking along the Thames for 31 incredible miles.

It will certainly be a memorable challenge; one that we would love to share with you.We are hoping to get a big group of NLC supporters together to join in with the adventure. Each step will be made that much more enjoyable with you lovely lot at our side!

What's more, the team at sister charity South London Cares are also taking part. In the spirit of competition, we hope to have a bigger team and raise more money than our friends on the other side of the river. Will you help make that possible?

We hope you will be a fundraising hero and join us for our biggest challenge event of the year.
