Glow Walk 2025 – cancelled
Acorns statement on the cancellation of Glow Walk 2025
It is with a heavy heart that we have made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s Glow Walk. Unfortunately, the event hasn’t had the same level of uptake as in previous years and, if we were to continue, we would be running it at a loss.
Every event we hold plays a vital role in helping us raise the £13 million we need each year to provide our specialist care for children and support for their families. They are at the heart of all our decisions – but we must make sure our fundraising is sustainable, cost-effective and continues to offer experiences that inspire and excite our supporters.
Making choices like this is never easy, but it’s essential to ensure we can be there for those who need us most, today and in the future.
We know this will be disappointing news for those who have already signed up, and we are truly grateful for your support and enthusiasm. All tickets will be fully refunded.
But this isn’t goodbye – Glow Walk will return, bigger and brighter than ever in 2026. Register your interest for our 2026 event now to be the first to hear when tickets open.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support. Together, we’re making sure families caring for seriously ill children are never alone.
Refund process
All participants will receive a full refund for their registration.
If you have registered for Glow Walk 2025, you will receive an email from Acorns regarding your refund. If you haven’t received this or have any questions, please contact our Events team on events@acorns.org.uk.
