The Big Nacoa Walk consists of the ‘Seven Edges Challenge’!

A beautiful 22.5 mile trek through the Manifold Valley and Dovedale in the Derbyshire Peak District. All in aid of children affected by a parent’s drinking.

We will traverse seven stunning edges: Derwent Edge, Stanage Edge, Burbage Edge (Upper), Burbage Edge (Lower), Froggatt Edge, Curbar Edge, Baslow Edge, Blackstone Edge and Birchin Edge.

Other notable highlights include the Derwent Reservoir (where the Dambusters practiced), Lost Lad rocks, Robin Hood’s Cave on Stanage Edge, Wellington’s Monument, Nelson’s Monument and Chatsworth Park.

Nacoa (The National Association for Children of Alcoholics) is a Bristol based charity founded in 1990 to provide help and support for everyone affected by a parent’s drinking.

We believe that every child has the right to a happy childhood and to live a creative and meaningful life but when drink is the family secret they are more likely to experience family violence, neglect and other problems in their own homes.
