Charities chosen for Lions Festive Walk

Knowle and Dorridge Lions have started another year of fundraising by announcing their nominated charities for the next year – the Teenage Cancer Trust, Parkinson’s Disease Society and fly2help who will to benefit from the Lions Festive Walk, Knowle Fun Run and Easter Egg Raffles.

The Festive Walk takes place on bank holiday Monday 28th December from Baddesley Clinton National Trust House offering walkers the choice of 4, 7 or 10 mile well signposted, routes across some of the most beautiful Warwickshire countryside.

‘Not only do walkers get the opportunity of walking off some of their Christmas excesses, they can get the extra satisfaction of supporting some really worthwhile charities,’ says organiser Simon Newell. ‘We are delighted to confirm that with help of various sponsors all the costs of the event have been covered and therefore every pound raised or donated by the walkers will go to the charities, with 30% retained for local causes.’

The Lions hope that everyone will commit to taking part now and bring along friends and family and go online to register free at www.KnowleandDorridgeLions.com/Walk
