GLOW THE DISTANCE for local children and families!
Bring together your friends, families and colleagues for Acorns’ brightest event! Put on your brightest gear, deck yourself out with glow sticks and fairy lights and shine bright around our fun 2.5km or 4km route at Walsall Arboretum and Lake.
By taking part in this incredible challenge and joining #TeamAcorns, you will be raising money for life limited and life threatened babies, children and young people across the West Midlands.
Glow Walk is suitable for all the family – there’s no age limit and the course is pushchair and wheelchair friendly so everyone can take part!

Your ticket price covers the cost of putting on the event, so anything you raise in sponsorship will help Acorns to provide specialist care for life limited and life threatened children, and support for their families. By signing up for this event, you are agreeing to raise just £10 per person.
