We want to give more young people than ever the chance to take part in The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE). Help us achieve this by joining us on a 10 or 22 mile walk along the spectacular Gower coast in South-West Wales.
The walk will be followed by a celebration event where you’ll be presented with your finisher’s medal. The money you raise will transform young people’s lives as they learn new skills and build life-long belief in themselves.
Whether you come along and meet people on the day or create a group in advance, it only takes a minute to sign up.
The minimum age to participate in this event is 13 and under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
Registration: £25
Sponsorship: £100
Hear from Tori James - the first Welsh woman to climb Everest - about why you should take part:
