Story
Welcome to our JustGiving page, set up by Oxfam St Albans for all Oxfam Walk 2018 supporters to use. Please add your contributions here!
On Saturday 29th September 2018 we will be hiking 3, 5, 8, or even 14 miles in beautiful Hertfordshire countryside to raise money for various Oxfam water projects. This will be the “Oxfam Walk for Water 2018”. In the UK we take clean, safe water out of our taps for granted, but in so many other countries it’s not like that. People who use unsafe river water for drinking suffer a high risk of disease. In addition, the journeys to collect water are dangerous; women and girls may get attacked whilst on their way. The hours spent in walking represent time lost from schooling, working and caring for families. Just as important as clean drinking water are adequate toilets. You can see more about the work Oxfam does on water here.

*UPDATE*
A HUGE thank you to everyone who came to see us on Saturday 1st September at our annual Street Collection. We are very pleased to announce that we made an impressive £448, which when added to our total from the Abbey Theatre night means we are almost £1000 into our £5000 Walk For Water fundraising target!
