    Big Fun Walk 2026

    Every step holds a story. Walk together. Remember always.

    For yesterday’s moments and tomorrow’s care, Big Fun Walk 2026 is a chance to honour the memories of those you love, while giving others the gift of support, comfort and peace when they need it most. It is where every step you take carries meaning.

    On Sunday 10 May, join hundreds of others on our iconic ten-mile route through London; a journey filled with laughter, remembrance and purpose.

    From the leafy paths of Hampstead Heath to the stunning views from Primrose Hill and onto the historic heart of Westminster, each step echoes with stories of lives lived and love that lasts.

    This year, because we will be walking together and remembering the stories of the lives of those we have loved, our event will be story themed.

    Big Fun Walk or Little Fun Walk?

    This year we are pleased to be, again, offering two options for length of walk.

    • Our 10 mile route starts at Cherry Tree Wood in Finchley and ends at United Nations Green (outside the QEII Centre at Westminster).
    • Our shorter 5 mile walk route starts at Cherry Tree Wood in Finchley and ends at Primrose Hill.

    The theme: Every Step Holds a Story

    This year’s theme invites you to walk in the spirit of stories, to step into a world of imagination and memory.

    From beloved fairytale heroes to timeless adventurers, let your outfit reflect the tales that inspire you. Perhaps you’ll walk as Alice, Peter Pan, or Little Red Riding Hood, or simply add a whimsical accessory that speaks
