The Sunset Walk
Sunday 14 September 2008, Central London

The Sunset Walk is a short stroll with a big heart. It’s your chance to take part in the season of Ramadan. To make new friends as you walk and talk – and raise money to provide food for poor communities worldwide.

It’s the most sociable and laidback fundraising you’ll ever do. The route passes through four royal parks – St. James, Green Park, Hyde Park and Regents Park. And when the sun goes down, you’ll share a fabulously tasty meal at the London Central Mosque.

All the money you raise will go to a variety of food aid projects.
