Wilf Walk

Challenge yourself this Summer and take on the Wilf Walk for St Wilfrid’s Hospice! 

On Saturday 22nd June, join fellow walkers and breathe in the spectacular views of the South Downs in our supported 8, 11, 19, or 30 mile walk, all whilst raising vital funds for local hospice care.

Whether you are a keen beginner, a rookie rambler or a hardened hiker, everyone is welcome to take part.

Following the South Downs Way from Ditchling Beacon, through Southease and Alfriston, to finish on the sunshine coast in Eastbourne. The route is broken down into three stages; take on as many as you want to, with the option to up the distance on the day if you’re feeling up to it!

In return, we will provide easy to follow routes and support along the way from our Wilf Walk Checkpoint Crews. Whatever level of challenge you choose to take on, there are stunning views to enjoy, a great sense of achievement to savour and a special Wilf Walk medal to collect at the finish!
