A big thank you to the wonderful Freddie Green and Family Charitable Foundation for offering to match every pound raised at Moonlight Walk 2023, in memory of Jo Green, who passed away in June 2021 at Hospice in the Weald. That means if you raise £50, we’ll receive £100 to put towards vital care for people in our community when they need it the most

What about fundraising?

We ask all Moonlight Walkers over the age of 13 to raise sponsorship for their walk but we would love for younger participants to get involved too with the help of friends and family.

Can I bring my dog?

Yes please! We welcome all well behaved dogs at Moonlight Walk; your furry friend is very welcome.

We just ask that you please keep your dog on the lead throughout the whole walk, especially in Knole Park around the deer

What measures are in place for participant safety?

The safety of all Moonlight Walk participants is very important to us. All routes will have marshals with phones or radios directing you and answering any questions.

Medical professionals will be walking with participants on all routes and the Raynet radio team will be strategically placed around the route for quick communication.

How long do the routes take?

We’d expect the routes to take approximately:

🌙  4 miles: 1-2 hours

🌙  8 miles – 3-4 hours

🌙  13 miles- 4- 5 hours

We have allocated 5 hours maximum for Moonlight Walk so please make sure you have returned to Sevenoaks Rugby Club by 12:00am at the latest so you can enjoy a glass of fizz and a sit down.

Are the routes suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs?

Unfortunately not. All 3 routes take you through Knole Park where there is limited access to paths, and some areas of the route are cobbled which would not be suitable for pushchairs or wheelchairs.

Is walking not for you?

We need over 100 volunteers to make Moonlight Walk possible, without their support, we simply can't go ahead with the event. If you're able to volunteer, please fill in the enquiry form below.

Volunteers are essential to the success of our events, they ensure our participants remain safe and importantly encourage them as they take on their challenge.
The main role of our volunteers is as route guides. You will be given a high vis, a route guide buddy and will be fully briefed ahead of the event with full instructions on where to stand and what direction to send the walkers.

Coming together for Sarah: The Davies Family's Story

When the Davies family decided they wanted to give back to the Hospice that cared for their beloved mum and wife Sarah, Moonlight Walk seemed the ideal opportunity. In their story, they explain just how special the event was and how they continue to celebrate the life of the woman at the heart of their family.
