The Big Lent Walk 2024 for Communities

CAFOD has organised The Big Lent Walk to help fight global poverty and English Martyrs is registered to take part.  The aim is for parish families, groups and individuals to walk 200 kilometres (124 miles) in 40 days (about 3 miles per day), before Easter and to each raise £200 through sponsorship.  Walking includes steps around the home, going to school or work, shopping, at the park, playing football/rugby, or going for a walk.  Two Parish walks have been arranged for Sunday 25th February and Sunday 24th March both at 2:30pm starting at English Martyrs Car Park, each about 3-4 miles.  Sign up at https://walk.cafod.org.uk/, 'Parishes Sign-Up', and then 'The Big Lent Walk 2024 for Communities' at Just Giving, linking into English Martyrs, Chard.  For more information contact Catherine and Tom at catechists.chard.englishmartyrs@cliftondiocese.com.
