On Wednesday 13th September we’ll be setting out for our charity walk in aid of Barnardo’s from 1AS, along Rochdale canal, to the Pioneers Museum, Toad Lane in Rochdale.

The walk itself is 13.5 miles, predominantly along the canal tow path from Manchester to Rochdale.

Why Barnardo's

The events of recent years have left over a third of young people feeling that the odds are stacked against them. We think young people deserve a better future, and so we have teamed up with Barnardo's to bring communities together to support young people.

Co-op colleagues are walking, running, cycling and climbing to raise £5m over the next two and a half years to support 750,000 young people to access basic needs like food, manage their mental wellbeing and opportunities for their future.

Help Co-op transform the lives of the UK's most vulnerable young people, together we can help thousands of families to build a better future.

Your donation will make a real difference to young peoples lives. Thank you.
