Event overview

Step up for homelessness today.

The London Walk is a night walk through London to raise money for homeless charities. Starting and finishing at St Martins in-the-Fields Church with a variety of distances available for people.

Homelessness is increasing in London, recent statistics show it’s up 40% since 2010. Whilst the need is increasing homelessness services have been decreasing due to funding cuts. Leaving people vulnerable to extended periods of homelessness which has a detrimental impact on their physical and mental health. The London Homeless Collective brings charities together from pavement to policy. Collectively, the group shares ideas, experience, and opportunities, and work together to ensure that nobody is left behind. 

This March we are coming together with one aim - to fight homelessness in our capital. Aiming to raise £250,000 to support much needed services over one fantastic night.
