Hearts and Souls have sadly had to cancel all their vital fundraising activities in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. If you would like to run an event for our benefit, we have a team of helpers to make it as easy and successful as possible. And, of course, we’ll help you publicise it. If you are interested in planning an event, please contact us.

The Hearts & Souls London Bridges Walk.
Usually, every year we organize a hugely enjoyable London Bridges Walk which takes place on the final Sunday of September.
About the walk
The last walk took place on Sunday 29th September 2019. Starting from Putney Bridge and finishing at around 1.30pm at Tower Bridge. It’s approximately 12 miles or 33,000 steps mostly on pavements and hard surfaces but there are some steps to climb to cross some of the bridges. This event is a big fundraiser for us. It’s also great fun and a wonderful way to take in the London river views and landmarks. Click here to see the illustrated route guide.
