The London Walk presents a united front of organisations that work together, tirelessly, for their beneficiaries rather than competing for donations from the public. We know that services work closely together when it comes to supporting people, but this isn’t well known to donors.  

The 3rd edition of the London Walk, in 2024, helped raise over £100,000 for 18 organisations from 230 walkers. For 2025, we are aiming for 500 walkers raising £200,000.  

The London Walk is a night walk, starting and finishing in an iconic venue adjoining Trafalgar Square there are three routes taking you North, South over the river, East and West. Making three different lengths for supporters to choose from: 10k, half marathon and a marathon. 

Benefits for charities:  

  • The average Return on Investment for a participating charity is better than £5.80 for every £1 spent (Average fundraising in 2024 was £379 per person). 
  • Unlike other events we offer a Pay As You Go option. (PAYG is available once you have committed to an initial purchase. We will agree an initial purchased based on your past engagement, either your initial number of places or number of walkers, whichever is lower. If you are taking part for the first time please contact us).
  • The LHC is not-for-profit; the more walkers you recruit the cheaper the price next year. 
  • We manage the event communication with your walkers leaving you to focus on their fundraising. 
  • It is an opportunity for your supporters to witness the realities of rough sleeping and the experiences of especially vulnerable groups like women and young people who keep moving through the night rather than sleep rough

“I wanted you to know pass on my thanks to you and everyone who helped ensure the walk went smoothly on the night. I was really impressed by the organisation throughout the evening. The marshals on bikes were amazing: clear, helpful and encouraging. It was reassuring to know they were never too far away. Having not taken part in the event before, I didn’t know what to expect, but it was a very positive experience and one I am proud to have been part of.”
