Event overview
Tommy Trek is a fundraising challenge designed to mark the anniversary of the D-Day Landings in 1944.
You'll trek through the beautiful Kent countryside, villages, fields and woodland, with stunning views over the Garden of England throughout.
A team breakfast is included mid-way along the route to keep you fully fuelled, and you'll finish with a celebratory glass of bubbles!
Whether you sign up as a team or as an individual, you'll be trekking in support of Royal British Legion Industries and our Forces communities.

Corporate Teams
An ideal fundraising challenge for groups of all sizes.
Walking is the top activity when organising an active fundraiser for a team as it is highly inclusive and caters for a range of abilities, ages and speeds, plus this trek offers a choice of two challenging but achievable distances.
There is a maximum number of four participants in a single team, plus a support driver. Your Corporate Team could have one or more groups of four people.
