Event: Big Walk 2022, on 24 June 2022
The Big Walk 2022 is back and better than ever! Returning on Friday 24th June, walkers will be fundraising to give hope to families living with the ongoing challenges of a genetic disease.

Story

Thank you for visiting our Big Walk 2022 Just Giving page in support of Genetic Disease Research at the University of Sheffield.

On Friday 24th June, we (Caroline Bland, Julia Dobson, Etienne Dunant, Giles Harrington, Sandra Henry, Claire Leavitt, Michael White and Caroline Wordley) will be walking a 30km route through the Peak District.

We're aiming to complete 30km, climbing a total of 793m (that’s like climbing the Arts Tower more than 10 times!), through the Peak District. Beginning at Edale, taking on the summit of Win Hill, braving the muddy paths near Ladybower, and battling the sea of heather at Bamford Edge, before returning to the University for a celebratory finish! Thank you for visiting our JustGiving page.

Any donations are appreciated to help reach our fundraising goal!

In the UK alone, 1 in 25 children is affected by a genetic disorder. Sheffield's research will change the lives of families who are desperately seeking a treatment for their loved-one. By making a gift today you will give hope to families living with the ongoing challenges of a genetic disease.
