‘Rosie’s
Walk' began in 2002 on the first anniversary of losing Rosie
as a memorial, raising money for City Hospital A&E Dept
and Cancer Research at the University of Birmingham. Because
of the overwhelming support and requests we received it has
grown into a very popular and successful annual event.
We wanted to involve the
whole community, including non walkers, so we added a small
festival to the sponsored walk with the aim of providing an
enjoyable family day out. We feel Rosie would very proud and
delighted by the people who support the day and what it goes
onto achieve. Thank you for your support for giving so generously
and helping many young lives and for giving us as a family,
strength, purpose and hope.’
The sponsored walk
raises vital funds for local children and young people’s
groups across the area. Here is what your money can achieve:-
£50 can
help a young disabled person into their first job
£20 can pay for a child to receive bereavement
support
£15 can ensure a teenager has a local
youth club
£10 can provide a child with a pre-school
facility.
£5 helps towards new equipment for pre-school
groups |
