The Great Family Walk 2026

Our Family's Progress

Bear
Our target: 42 miles
We've completed 23.1 miles together!

This August, our family will be taking on 42 miles of adventurous family fun for Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Chairty) to help build a new world-class Children’s Cancer Centre at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH).
 
Your donations will help to keep us all motivated to get out there and clock up the miles, but they’ll also help to beat cancer for more children.

We've smashed it!

While we are only just over half way to our walking target, we have smashed our fundraising target and we are now ranked 5th on the families leaderboard!

So I've raised the financial bar from £100 to £500 making us halfway there too!

I wonder if other families will be inspired to join in with this fundraiser... Do let me know!

Woah! We're half way there!

We're halfway towards our 43 mile target - thanks Darren for doing the heavy lifting with the miles!

Emily and I did a lovely walk yesterday too and clocked up 2 miles.

Jack is working hard in physio and at workshops this week but I think it will be extra special when he clocks up some wheel assisted miles. I'll let you know!

And they're off...

The Duquemin family have signed up to raise money for GOSH new cancer wing.

We have already received 2 donations!

Darren woke up to the news and was keen to get started. The children are currently showing less enthusiasm... "Noooooo!!!"

But as they understand that it is achievable and going to be fun with a good goal at the end, I'm sure they'll get on board! 

I think it will be memorable bonding time together. I'm looking forward to this challenge! Thanks Great Ormond Street for this brilliant idea for the holidays 😊 ☀️ 

This August, our family is joining The Great Family Walk!

GOSH already cares for children with the hardest to treat cancers, and new treatments are giving hope to children and their families. But these advances have outstripped GOSH's current cancer facilities.

We need a new home for breakthrough treatments and pioneering research, so we can save more children's lives. And because cancer shouldn't get to steal anyone's childhood, we need a place that's more than a hospital – a place that's a school, a playground, a garden, and so much more.

Please consider sponsoring us so 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.
