Our London event is the biggest of three and last year saw 4,500 people turn up on the day to walk with us across the capital’s bridges on our ten and five mile routes!

With two distances to choose from, there is something for everyone at Wellness Walk London Bridges 2025.

The 10 mile option starts at Battersea Park before criss-crossing 11 iconic bridges before finishing at Tower Bridge and Potters Fields Park.

The 5 mile option starts at Potters Fields Park and criss-crosses 4 iconic bridges, before finishing at Tower Bridge and back at Potters Fields Park.

Everyone will receive a well deserved medal at our Finisher’s Area.

This year the London Wellness Walk will take place on Sunday, 28 September. Find out more and register here: https://fundraise.diabetes.org.uk/event/wellness-walk-london/home

We have a suite of offices to let on the second floor of our vibrant building in SW6 on the border with W6.

The space comprises four offices, large kitchen area, shower room and a utility/WC room.

Our preference is to let as a suite of offices, but will also consider letting offices individually. Offices are suitable for 2-6 people.

Rent includes electricity and gas but not Business Rates if applicable. Use of our garden space and a discount on rental of larger meeting rooms within our Community Centre.

Good links to public transport – 15 minute walk to Hammersmith and Barons Court tube stations and a bus stop outside the building with buses to West Brompton and Putney Bridge.

The suite has just been rewired and redecorated.

These offices are being let out by The Creighton Centre a local charity based in Fulham. The rental income will help to fund our charitable work in the area.

If interested please contact Matthew Byrne on 07506 988741or by email mbyrne@creightoncentre.org

My name is Claudia, and I am a Research Officer at the Self-Care Academic Research Unit (SCARU) at Imperial College London. I’m reaching out to invite your support to help us recruit participants to the FOCUS Research Study which is being led by our research unit. Our ethically approved FOCUS study is exploring how people living with osteoarthritis manage their symptoms using lifestyle medicine approaches (with a focus on using anti-inflammatory diet to support self-management of OA symptoms). I am emailing you as perhaps some of the people who reach out to you may suffer with this condition and so may be interested in being a part of research.

The ethically approved research study has the potential to shape how we understand and support the use of food-as-medicine in OA management. By helping us connect with individuals living with OA, we believe your organisation can play a key role in advancing scientific knowledge & ultimately improving the quality of life for millions affected by this condition.

We’re looking to identify up to 20 individuals with OA to participate in personal interviews (30–45 minutes, via Zoom or Teams) and be scheduled at the participant’s convenience. All responses will be kept confidential, and each conversation will provide valuable insights to guide future health strategies and support systems.

Please reach out to me via email claudia.hobbs@ic.ac.uk or on 0207 574 7604 if you’d like to be interviewed.

It’s so motivating to think about the far-reaching effects of what we do. By working with children at a key time in their development, we help them set themselves up for a more successful, happier life. With their mentors, TKN children are able to: 

Go on adventures that help them develop confidence
Rely on a grown-up who’s there to listen to them
Build tools that they’ll use in the future

We want every child who wants a mentor to have one. Can you help us by volunteering, donating or partnering with us as a school?  

Whether you’re interested in becoming a mentor, you want to refer a pupil from your school, or you’d like to learn more about all the different ways people raise money to help us deliver our programming – our website has all the details – The Kids Network
