🌳 EVERY STEP HOLDS A MEMORY 💚
This October, we're asking the Forest to walk together for Great Oaks Hospice.
On Sunday 18 October at 10.30am, four walks will set off at the same time from Cinderford, Coleford, Lydney and Newent — each following a local 5km route, but all walking for one very special cause. 💚
Walk in memory of someone you love.
Walk to celebrate someone special.
Or simply walk to help Great Oaks continue being there for local people and their families.
Great Oaks Hospice provides its care and support completely free of charge, and every entry and donation helps us continue to do just that.
👟 £5 entry per person
💚 Under 15s FREE
🐾 Dogs welcome on leads
To book your place, call Great Oaks Hospice on 01594 811910 and let us know which walk you'd like to join, or email events@great-oaks.org.uk.
You can also support the Great Great Oaks Walk through our JustGiving page 👇
www.justgiving.com/campaign/great-great-oaks-walk?utm_medium=CA&utm_source=CL
Who will you be walking for? 💚
Walk for someone. Walk with someone. Walk to remember.
🌳 Four towns. Four walks. One community. Every step holds a memory.
