Great news…the Walk of the Black Country is back for 2012!

Following in the footsteps of last year’s successful event, we’re thrilled to announce this year’s Walk of the Black Country will be on Sunday, 10th June 2012.

Last year 3,500 people took part in the Walk and raised £103,000 for local charities – a fantastic achievement by everyone. It was an incredible day and we hope everyone will join us once again to help make a difference to the lives of local people across our region.

Beacon presenters have once again teamed up with the University of Wolverhampton and all proceeds will go to Promise Dreams – with a percentage of funds going to the Dudley and Wolverhampton Mayoral charities.

What are you waiting for? Join us on Sunday 10th June – sign up NOW!
