Story

The Balloon of Hope is a 26.4 mile walk walk taking place on the 21 April and we will be raising money for Samaritans of Pendle.

We will start at 6am in Foulridge to walk the "Heart" and then we will make our way down the balloon picking up more walkers as we go, finishing at Rawtenstall Market.

The full route can be viewed here: https://shorturl.at/cjuT7

Pendle Samaritans in Nelson will act as a mid-way refreshment/loo stop but please do bring your own snacks etc.

More detailed info will be shared in the WhatsApp group.

Samaritans T-Shirts will be provided and there will be a support car on the route in case of emergency.
