Rehab UK is looking for participants to take part in their sponsored walk across London's bridges on Saturday 12th July 2008, to raise funds for the crucial work they do with people who have acquired brain injury (ABI).
The money raised from the 'Crossing Bridges' sponsored walk will provide the necessary funding to firmly establish Rehab UK's Family Support Days as a regular addition to their unique rehabilitation services at their London Brain Injury Centre.
The walk takes on Towere Bridge and the Millennium Bridge.
This challenge is for all levels of walker and incorporates many of London's spectacular sites. The walk itself is approximately two to three miles and participants have two hours to complete the challenge. All you need to do is pay a £5 deposit and raise £50 or more in sponsorship. So slip on those walking shoes and raise much needed funds for Rehab UK.
