Kids Nature Walk Challenge Smashes Fundraising Target


A Grimsby charity that supports those facing homelessness is getting a £600 boost, thanks to local children who took the Lincolnshire Wolds for a Walking Challenge.


Young people rambled through the beautiful landscape of the Lincolnshire Wolds on a sunny Sunday morning in a charity fundraising event, organised by Grimbarian James Elliott, aka The Canoe River Cleaner. 


The challenge took the children and their families through five-and-a-bit miles of open fields, woodland, and country lanes. This was a fun, educational walk, with the participants receiving a goody bag and certificate as a thank you for their achievements. The goal was to raise £300 through sponsorships, but that target was smashed, doubling the amount to reach £606.85!


Money raised is being donated to Harbour Place, who operate a night shelter for rough sleepers and have an outreach team to help people move off the street and into permanent accommodation.
