About the event
This is a tough 1 day challenge that will see you walking a marathon-distance from Hampton Court to Millennium Bridge. You’ll be following the Thames Path for 42km, which allows you to see the changing landscape from leafy areas of west London through to the bustling city sights further in the east.
Charity Challenge specialises in delivering exceptional adventure challenges, allowing participants to raise money for StJohn’s. For over 24 years they have created and managed international expeditions which have enabled people to raise in excess of £70 million for thousands of charities. Charity Challenge operates challenges across 6 continents, in over 40 countries worldwide.
Why trek for St John’s Hospice?
As part of Team St John’s you will receive:
- A free hospice branded t-shirt.

How your support helps

- £500 could fund 24-hour at-home nursing care for a patient who wants to remain in familiar and comforting surroundings in the later stages of their illness.
