To celebrate our 30^th year we are organising a charity
walk for our charities of the year: Lamp and Stonebridge City Farm on 30^th
March.

Since we’ve been going for 30 years, a 30 mile walk is the
perfect way to mark this big occasion whilst also raising money for our
charities.

Both Lamp and Stonebridge City Farm are near and dear to our
hearts with both charities focussing on support and advocacy for mental health in
their communities.  Stonebridge City Farm
provides an inner city farm in Nottingham for all to enjoy with great
volunteering opportunities and support for all and Lamp provides mental health programmes,
services and events in the Leicestershire area.

Our Social Committee (Fun at Macs) has done a great job of
putting together a 30 mile canal-based walk going from Leicester to Nottingham
on Thursday 30^th March.

Our intrepid walkers will be setting off first thing and
heading out on a walk that should take just over 12 hours (with the help of
some very sturdy walking boots).

The walk has been broken down with several checkpoints along
the way at some wonderful eating establishments around the Leicestershire and
Nottinghamshire area.  The perfect way to
have a bit of a breather but also allow people to join the walk if they can’t
do the full 30 miles.

Please help us raise money for our great charities by
sponsoring the walkers who will be doing what most of us have only done in a
car.

potentially join in, please email: admininbox@macildowie.com.
