Story

The Newton Abbot & District Group have thought up their own version of the 13 Tors Challenge and are heading out over the wilds of Dartmoor to raise much needed funds for Marie Curie Nurses in Devon.

The 2020 Marie Curie 13 Tors Dartmoor Challenge was scheduled to take place on 11 October starting out in Widecombe in the Moor and ending there with a well deserved Devonshire Cream Tea for the 200 walkers who take part.  It has been postponed due to Covid-19 and will next take place on 10 October 2021.

The members of the Group aren't intrepid trekkers so will be breaking the 13 Tors into Bite Size chunks to suit their walking abilities.  We will visit the 13 Tors and walk a distance of 14 miles but not in one go!  We will start our walks on 4 September and continue on subsequent Fridays until all the Tors have been visited.

With big dreams the Group would love to be able to replace the £60,000 lost from the cancellation of the 2020 Challenge -  with your help let’s see how close we can get!
