This year's C. Hoare & Co Charity Challenge is a trail walk along the South Downs Way, between Falmer and Eastbourne. The South Downs are an undulating range of chalk hills which flow through a mix of open farmland, hedgerows and exposed ridges before finally reaching the spectacular chalk cliffs at Cuckmere, the infamous Seven Sisters and Beachy Head. 

At 26 miles, the near marathon route will provide a tough challenge as we look to raise as much  money for the bank's charity of the year, MIND- the mental health charity.
