Join Positive Action in the Community for ‘Light Up the Hills’ – 7-Mile Charity Walk!
Embark on a scenic 7-mile journey from Waterfoot Yard, ascending 1,170 feet through the stunning hills of Cowpe, Rossendale. Guided by the amazing team at Abigail’s Trails, you’ll experience breathtaking views of Rossendale valley. As the sun sets, we will light up the hills with a torchlit procession, descending from the Top of Leach back to Waterfoot.
By participating in this sponsored walk, you will help raise vital funds for PAC – supporting those affected by youth homelessness, domestic abuse, and mental health challenges. Additionally, our campaign aims to raise awareness of World Suicide Prevention Day.
