Councillor Julie Najuk, the Mayor of Gedling, is holding a charity walk and talk to raise funds for this important charity. The walk will take place at 11.00am on Saturday 16 September at Gedling Country Park and is a chance to enjoy a bit of fresh air and nature and de-stress while raising money for this wonderful cause.

Please donate £5 to join the walk and then meet near the visitor centre at Gedling Country Park to set off on a route that will be suitable for most people (the route is moderately difficult, covering 5km).
