Accuro, a local charity based in West Essex, are set to launch their new challenge walk event, The Accuro 50, this September.
The 50 mile walk will start at Loughton Tube Station and finish in the market town of Saffron Walden, taking in many points of interest along the way. It will principally follow parts of four long-distance paths – the Forest Way, the Flitch Way, Saffron Trail and Harcamlow Way.
The event offers different distances over one, two or three days, and various packages are available for sponsorship or self-funding participation, as well as including accommodation and transfers to and from the route.
Fundraising Manager, Sue Fishpool, who devised the route and is a keen walker herself, said: “I am delighted to introduce the new Accuro 50 challenge walk event to West Essex this September. The event is unique in our area and has been a personal project of mine for several years. I hope to encourage walkers with all levels of experience to join in and discover what a beautiful county we live in whilst raising much needed funds for the local charity Accuro and helping to change lives for local people with a disability. It has been huge fun creating both the route and the event and we are looking forward to supporting our walkers along the way.”
The Accuro 50 is supported by MW Fitness, who will provide training and nutritional advice.
Accuro are inviting walkers of all levels of experience to join them in discovering the beautiful Essex countryside whilst simultaneously raising money for a local charity.
