Sunrise Walk of Hope Fundraiser

Every year on September 10th World Suicide Prevention Day is observed. This is such an important date to address the growing issue of suicide and encourage positive change.

On Sunday 8th September we will be introducing The Sunrise Walk of Hope, a 5.8k walk starting and finishing at Colwyn Bay Pier. The Walk of Hope aims to raise awareness around suicide as well as raising vital funds for our services that support so many people who experience suicidal thoughts. We will all walk together to show nobody has to walk alone in their journey and watch the sunrise whilst remembering those lost to suicide. Together we can squash the stigma and help more people!

Timings:

Registration will open at 5am on the pier in Colwyn Bay, we will start the walk at 5:45am to watch the sunrise at Penmaen Head before heading back to the finish at Colwyn Bay Pier. (5.8km)

Price:

Entry is £10 per person and everyone will receive a pastry and cold drink at the finish. We will also have “I am walking for…” signs available for you to attach to your t-shirts if you’re walking in memory of someone or for someone. 

Please note anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

Fundraising:

Fundraising isn’t compulsory but to ensure we can raise as much money as possible we do encourage you to set up a Just Giving Page and raise any amount you can. Anyone who raises £30 or more will receive a Seren the Seal keyring!
