This flagship sponsored walk through the stunning Cotswold countryside is jam-packed with something for everyone, whether you bring your friends, family or colleagues along. Dogs are also very welcome!
The Five Valleys Walk is suitable for all ages and abilities, and walkers can start or finish at any of our eight checkpoints. Although the 21-mile route is a tough challenge, you can choose your distance and cover anything from 1.5 miles up to the full 21.
You'll get to enjoy the beautiful hills and valleys en route, and once you're ready to call it a day, the wonderful friends at Stagecoach will be on hand to offer you a free bus ride back to your starting point, with the last bus leaving checkpoints at 4:45pm.
How you will be helping in the fight against meningitis in the UK.
It is estimated that 8,000 people a year contract bacterial or viral meningitis in the UK; that's 22 people, every day. By coming together, every Five Valleys Walker is encouraged to raise a minimum of £22 in sponsorship, or to donate £22, so that everyone affected by the disease receives the support they need to rebuild their lives, while helping Meningitis Now achieve their goal of defeating meningitis in the UK within a generation. Your welcome email and pack will include helpful information about how to raise sponsorship or donate, and the team will be on hand every step of the way (quite literally!).
