💚 How to Get Involved
• Minimum donation: £20 per person (all proceeds go to Ryedale Special Families)
• You’re welcome to join just the morning walk, just the afternoon walk, or tackle both!

If you’d like to raise additional sponsorship, you absolutely can — but for simplicity’s sake, we’ve kept it to a minimum donation. Every penny raised goes straight to this amazing cause! 🙌

✅ What to Bring
• Suitable footwear (walking boots or sturdy trainers)
• Water and any snacks you may need
• Weather-appropriate clothing

This is going to be a fantastic day out, supporting a brilliant local charity that provides vital support for families of children and young people with disabilities and special educational needs.
We’d love to see as many of you there as possible — let’s make this a day to remember while raising money for a truly special cause! 💜
