You are invited to join us for all (or some!) of the 40 mile walk created by John and Nancy Eckersley from Flamborough, who are very experienced walkers.

The pilgrimage is an opportunity to enter into the story of an extraordinary woman who played a key role in our church history by walking together in her footsteps, a chance to come together as a diocesan family and enjoy exploring a beautiful part of our area and a time to have some fun, food, friendship in the villages we visit.

There will be a variety of ways you can be involved:

  • The keen walkers are welcome to join the challenge of walking the whole 40 mile pilgrimage over the five days;
  • The day-trippers can join in for a day or two, choosing days that suit their availability and energy levels; and
  • The younger children and families are invited to Messy Pilgrimage, which will mean shorter walks Messy Church in the villages we stop at along the way.

Below is the poster for the event, and the booking form available for download. The booking form also has more specific information about the pilgrimage for interested parties.
