GET ready to walk to raise money for Warrington Disability Partnership.

The charity is hosting its Walk in the Park event on Sunday, May 11 The 5k walk, which will start and end at WDP’s Centre for Independent Living on Beaufort Street, is fully accessible and open to everyone and takes in Sankey Valley Park.

'A Walk in the Park' gives you the opportunity to raise funds through sponsorship for an organisation of YOUR choice! This could be a local school, youth group or charity.

People can also walk for fun - just paying the £5 entry fee.

The event will be held from 10am to 4pm and Clr Peter Carey, Mayor of Warrington, will be in attendance.

All participants will receive a medal and certificate for their efforts – and all funds raised on the day (apart from any sponsorship raised for individual groups) will go towards supporting the work of WDP.

As well as the walk, a variety of stalls will be serving refreshments – including a barbecue and cakes - and there will be a whole host of activities for families to enjoy such as hook a duck and an inflatable rugby pitch (courtesy of the Wolves Foundation).
