Adventure awaits this August

Whether you’re conquering the countryside, pacing through parks or strolling the city streets, every mile counts. Complete 42 miles throughout August as a team, your way. Walk where, when and how you like, in little boredom-busting bursts or big,ger memory-making family adventures. 
 
No expensive days out or fancy equipment needed. Just lace up your trainers, get outdoors and enjoy quality time together. Pack a picnic, discover somewhere new or revisit your family’s favourite spots as you make memories and work towards your shared goal. 
 
Whether you’re walking together or apart, every step counts towards your family challenge. It’s your family time, your adventure, your way.

More than just a walk

Every step you take and every pound you raise helps build the new Children’s Cancer Centre at GOSH, supporting children with cancer and their families and helping create a brighter future for children with cancer. 
 
Raise whatever you can and you’ll unlock plenty of rewards along the way. From fun weekly side quests packed with activities and surprises, to digital badges that celebrate your milestones, there’s always something new to keep the whole family motivated. 

A challenge to be proud of, rewards for the whole family and a chance to make a real difference. 
 
Together, we can Walk it. Build it. Beat it.

What you'll contribute to:

By joining the Great Family Walk and raising money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity), you’ll support the building of the new Children’s Cancer Centre at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) and help beat cancer for more children.  

GOSH already cares for children with the hardest-to-treat cancers, and new treatments are giving hope to kids across the UK. But these advances have outstripped GOSH’s current cancer facilities. 

We need your help to build a new home for breakthrough treatments and pioneering research, so we can help save more children’s lives.

Together we can Walk it. Build it. Beat it.

All the funds raised from The Great Family Walk will go towards the development of cancer care at Great Ormond Street Hospital. In the event that costs change, or the needs of the hospital or patients change, we reserve the right to redirect funds for use against the hospital’s most urgent needs.
