Join CRY on 9th July 2017 for the 11th annual CRY Heart of London Bridges Walk. This event offers the opportunity to show support for CRY, remember young people, raise funds and help raise awareness of young sudden cardiac death. In 2016, over 1,200 people took part in the walk, helping us to raise over £69,000.

When and where is it?  Sunday 9th July. Register from 9.30am at Potters Fields Park. The walk will start from here at 11.00am and end at Hays Galleria, near London Bridge. The route crosses 6 Thames bridges and includes great views of at least 12 of London’s famous landmarks, representing the 12 young sudden cardiac deaths that occur each week in the UK. Some of these landmarks include, Somerset House, St Paul’s Cathedral, Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre, Southwark Cathedral, the Tower of London, City Hall and HMS Belfast.

How long is the walk?  10km (approx 6 miles). As a guide, the route should take about 2.5-3 hours at an average walking pace. There is also the option of a shorter buggy/wheelchair-friendly route.

Do I have to be in a team?   No. Many people will be taking part on their own.
