About this Event

Walk leader - Terry’s Walkabouts

Join us for a nostalgic walk as we retrace the 1984 RAG Float Parade route – a vibrant celebration of creativity, community and charity. ‘Raising and Giving’ (RAG) has long been at the heart of Reading Students’ Union’s fundraising spirit. On this walk, we’ll pause at key points along the parade route to revisit the energy excitement of past RAG parades through photographs, stories and memories from the era.

Start and end: The Museum of English Rural Life, RG1 5EX
