After last year’s incredible success – with over 35 walkers raising an amazing £6,265, match-funded to a phenomenal £12,530 – we’re thrilled to announce that registrations are now OPEN for this year’s 2025 Great Big Walk for Herts with our fantastic charity partner, Helping Herts.
This is your chance to join #TeamSPACE on Saturday, 27th September 2025 for a beautiful countryside walk around Hunsdon, Widford, Wareside and Great Amwell, all while raising vital funds to support families of neurodivergent children and young people in Hertfordshire.
And the best part? Every penny you raise will be match-funded by Helping Herts – doubling your impact! You can choose between a half marathon or 5km route.
Choose your distance
Walkers can choose from two distances including a fun family 5k or an exciting half marathon route. Afterwards, walkers will have the opportunity to enjoy some well-deserved refreshments at our Lending SPACE.
The routes
Both routes start at our Lending SPACE in Stanstead Abbotts at 10am. Our half marathon route follows a lovely circular route. through rolling countryside, taking walkers through picturesque sites in the local area before returning to Stanstead Abbotts. Don’t let the words ‘half marathon’ put you off! It’s a delightful Saturday walk through beautiful countryside, perfect for everyone.
The 5km route finishes at Hunsdon where our team will be waiting to bring you back to Stanstead Abbots.
Walking for #TeamSPACE
To join Team SPACE the entry fee is £10 for each adult walker and £5 for each child walker. Alternatively, you can participate as a family of 4 walkers for £20. While there is no specific fundraising goal, it would be fantastic if you could raise £100 (or more!) in donations, as our charity partner, Helping Herts, will match the amount.
