We are a group of employees from EE who work within the Executive Customer Relations Team and are walking from Darlington Town Centre to Durham City Centre, which is just over 30km, on May 14th 2017.  All age ranges and fitness levels are taking part in this event and there will also be relay stages for participants who would be unable to complete the 30km but still wish to participate in smaller stages (approx 10km).

We are doing this charity walk in aid of Cruse Bereavement Care which is the  leading national charity for bereaved people in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, they also have a regional centre based in Darlington.  Cruse offers support, advice and information to children, young people and adults when someone dies and work to enhance society’s care of bereaved people.

Cruse offers face-to-face, telephone, email and website support. They also have a Freephone national helpline, local services and a website (hopeagain.org.uk) specifically for children and young people. Their  services are provided by our network of 5,000 trained volunteers and are confidential and free. Cruse also provides training and consultancy for external organisations and for those who may encounter bereaved people in the course of their work.
