SEVEN fundraising walks are to be held this summer as a campaign is launched to raise funds to support the South West Coast Path.

The South West Coast Path Association has launched the Coast Path Challenge 2024 as part of its its Every Mile Matters campaign.

The campaign is designed to inspire everyone who loves the longdistance path to get involved and raise funds to protect the trail, helping to ensure it continues to be there for future generations to enjoy, despite increasing threats from extreme weather conditions, climate change and coastal erosion.

The Coast Path Challenge will include seven fundraising walks (all accessible by train or bus/public transport), across the seven sections of the Coast Path during National Walking month, in May, giving people a chance to take to the path and show their support alongside businesses who are championing different local sections across the 630 miles across four counties.
