About the Walk

Whether you're a beginner, family walker, or seasoned trekker, the Community Charity Walk welcomes everyone. The route is friendly, scenic, and ends at Sandy Park just before kick-off.

Tony Rowe CBE, Chairman of the Exeter Chiefs Foundation, said:
“We are looking to make this a much larger event than before and turn it into an annual event that people want to get involved with now and in the future. Obviously, the main purpose is to raise vital money for local charities, but if we can get people out of their armchairs and exercising, even better.”
