Walk the South Devon 60 for Young Carers
- Walk the 60 miles of the Glorious National Landscape Coastline on the South West Coast Path National Trail
- Fund 60 local young carers to enjoy coastal respite days
- Celebrate 60 Years of the South Devon National Landscape
What is the 60@60 Challenge?
There are 60 miles of glorious coastline in South Devon National Landscape and we challenge you to walk the 60 miles, along the South West Coast Path, to mark our 60th year!
60@60 is a walking challenge with the best of views, the best of local food and drink and the best of company! It can be done entirely at your own pace, in your own time, and with your choice of walking buddy!
Who are we raising money for?
We are fundraising to take 60 young carers for days out on the beautiful coast of South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty during summer 2021 to picnic, explore, play and have a go at activities including canoeing, surfing and other outside activites. They will have a wonderful day making brilliant memories, as a recognition for the amazing work they do for their families. We will be working with Devon Young Carers and local outdoor activity organisations, as well as the South West Coast Path Association.
Our aim is to take 60 young carers out.
To do this, we have set a target to raise £4000.
Sounds great – how do we join in?
