On Sunday 18th April 2021 Longford Women's Institute are organising and taking part in a 5 mile local walk to raise funds for the 'Spring into April' event in support of Women's Work (Derbyshire). 

Participants from Longford village are very welcome to join the walk either individually, with family or friends.  Please note that all walkers taking part MUST FOLLOW the current Covid government guidance on numbers, social distance, etc.

Women's Work (Derbyshire) is a charity that Longford WI have supported for a number of years and it helps women and children across Derbyshire to overcome the barriers in their lives. 

Every penny we raise will go towards supporting women who are experiencing domestic abuse, substance misuse, exploitation or poor mental health, linked with financial insecurity, food poverty and homelessness.  The Covid-19 pandemic is a challenging time for everyone, but these women need the holistic and intensive support that Women's Work (Derbyshire) offers to help them lead healthier and more fulfilling lives.
