On Sunday, March, supporters will take on the ever-popular annual walk, which starts at the Trevor Basin in Llangollen, before heading over the world-famous Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and following the canal all the way to The Poachers pub at Chirk for refreshments before heading back to receive their special medals.
Last year the event, which is now in its 15th year, raised a massive £18,000 for the charity.
Fundraiser Vicky Bradbeer said: “This wonderful event is guaranteed to put a smile on your face and a spring in your step this March. Bring along friends, family, colleagues and those four-legged friends and embrace the great outdoors.
“We have already well over half the places for the canal walk, which is absolutely incredible.
“This event is extremely popular and is always a sell-out, so make sure you sign up and get your tickets via the Hope House website to avoid disappointment.”
The event is sponsored this year by Chirk-based Kronospan, who will also have a team walking on the day.
Ben Spruce CFO at Kronospan said: “It’s a real pleasure to be able to sponsor the event and continue our support for Hope House and Tŷ Gobaith.
“We know several of our team are also planning to don their boots and join the walk, so we wish them and everyone else the best of luck in raising as much money as possible for Hope House and Tŷ Gobaith.”
Tickets for the event are £15 for adults and £5 for children and all entrants will get a special bespoke 2025 medal and a goody bag at the halfway point.
