Overview

Follow the Seagulls is a long distance, charity trek to help make sure no one has to face a brain tumour alone. It’s your chance to do something truly incredible that matches your passion to help the 60,000 people in the UK who are afraid and alone because of their brain tumour diagnosis.

The Follow the Seagulls treks take place annually on the Isle of Wight, Whitby in North Yorkshire, the Fife Coastal Path in Scotland, Dartmouth in Devon and now Brighton too.

What to expect

Get together with the wider group at the start on both days and at various points over the weekend, but you will step into the role of navigator on this self-supported walk.

There’ll be trails to stick to, and fellow walkers to join up with, but you’ll have to consult your maps which will be annotated to help you navigate your way around.

Whether you choose to walk alone or as part of a group, you will be ensured an amazing experience!
