Join us as we walk together in memory of friends, families and colleagues.

Star Shine Night Walk Wisbech will be a 6km walk that will start and finish in the stunning gardens of Elgood & Sons Brewery.

The Route 

The 6km route will take in some of Wisbech’s main attractions, including the North Brink, the Town Bridge, Peckover House and the Clarkson Memorial. You’ll weave your way through the town and around Wisbech Park, before making your way back to the Brewery for some well deserved refreshments!

Behind the North Brink Brewery, you’ll find a beautiful four acre garden incorporating specimen trees as old as the surrounding buildings, herbaceous borders, a lake, rockery, water features, exotic house and herb garden. The garden is no longer open to the public (except for special events) so this is a wonderful opportunity to get exclusive access whilst raising money for the people supported by the Alan Hudson Treatment Centre.

FAQ

When and where is the walk?

The walk will be taking place on Saturday 17 May 2025, starting and ending at Elgood’s Brewery on the North Brink. Walkers will depart at 7pm. 

The walk is 6km and will take you on a circuit around Wisbech. There is no shorter route available for the Wisbech walk.

The cost is £10 per person for both adults and children (aged 10+) 

As part of signing up for the walk, you will receive a technical t-shirt, a medal to take home with you, along with a hot drink and biscuit upon your return.

Yes, absolutely! Children between 10 – 15 years of age are welcome to register alongside a paying adult. 

There’s no dress code, we simply recommend wearing whatever you find comfortable to walk in. Each participant will receive their very own Star Shine t-shirt on the night and we very much encourage anything bright and wacky that will help set the town aglow!

The walk will go ahead come rain or shine, so do keep an eye on the forecast in the lead up to the event and come weather ready! 

As this is a brand new event, the answer is, we don’t know. However, we’d love to see in the region of 200 participants setting the town aglow this year, so sign up now to be one of them!

All volunteers are enormously appreciated and help us to make the evening a success.

Please get in contact with the Fundraising Team by emailing fundraising@arhc.org.uk or telephone 01223 675888 if you’d like to lend a hand.

You absolutely can! We welcome all well-behaved four legged friends on a lead who wish to join the walk with their owners! Dogs must remain outside at all times and please do make sure you pick up any toileting they do on route.

Although not compulsory, we really encourage you to fundraise. You can do this as a group if you sign up with family and friends, or individually.

We’ll give you lots of support with fundraising tips and help you set up an online fundraising page so it’s really easy to get started.

Your fundraising will help make a difference to the support people in Wisbech living with an advanced serious illness or other life-limiting condition and those who need end of life care.

We hope that you’ll be able to take part in the 6km route, however, if you feel that this is an unmanageable distance and still want to be there on the night to show your support, then get in contact with fundraising@arhc.org.uk to volunteer to help out and marshal! 

Yes, there is limited parking available so we do encourage car sharing where possible.

Yes, please let one of the team know on the night and we will match you with someone else.
