The Big Journey
This is our major fundraising activity. Our aim, with the help of anyone who would like to take part, is to cover a total of 550 miles (the distance from Southampton to Lourdes).
Your leg of the journey can be any length you choose and covered in whatever way you would like eg. Walking, swimming, running, cycling…
So, put on your walking boots, mount your bike, slip on your swimsuit - whatever you fancy but please, however you do it, join the Big Journey!
How do I sponsor someone?
Those taking part in the Journey will have sponsorhsip forms and you can give direct to them, or, we have a "Just Giving" site through which you can donate direct to the group:
Please remember to let us know if you pay UK tax so that we can claim Gift Aid on your donation!
