Coast Along for WaterAid

This year we need the support of even more walkers, ramblers and runners to achieve our challenge: to get at least one team walking on all 187 sections of selected coastal paths throughout England, Wales and Scotland to raise money for WaterAid.

The scenery is spectacular, the heritage is rich and varied, the beaches and coves inviting, the cliffs inspiring, a taste of the West and Wales. All in all a great day out!

Fourteen regions have been divided into 187 sections of between four and 15 miles in length. Each section is graded as easy, moderate, strenuous or severe, so you can choose a path that suits your level of fitness. There is something for everybody: for families, ramblers, long-distance walkers and even marathon runners. Some of the path sections are suitable for use by wheelchairs and buggies. See www.coastalongforwateraid.org

The fourth Coast Along for WaterAid event will take place on Saturday 11 September 2010
