What you can do
It's easy to
organise an Honour Walk and our Organisers
Pack provides everything you'll need whether your walk is just
a group of friends or your whole community. Simply follow
these stages and links:
Plan
We've prepared a handy timetable of what to
do in advance, including choosing the route, thinking about your
income and expenditure and considering any risks.
Promote
Getting people to take part in your walk is key, so here
are some tips for spreading the word and getting
everyone talking about it.
As well as traditional media, social media is a great way to
create a buzz around an event, and setting up a Facebook page or
Twitter account takes a matter of minutes. Don't forget to contact
your local Community Fundraiser who will put you in touch with your
local Legion Branch.
Fundraise
It's quick and safe to fundraise and collect donations
online, with our guides to setting up a page on Virgin Money Giving or JustGiving, you'll be raising money in no
time.
If you'd also like to raise money in the traditional way, or
you'd prefer not to use the internet, we've provided a sponsorship form that you can print out. Look
at our A-Z of Fundraising for hints and tips of other
ways to fundraise.
Walk!
We've also supplied a registration form, badges for the walkers and a certificate for celebrating their success
once they've finished.
After the walk
When you've had a well-deserved cup of tea and a sit down, don't
forget to look at the 'After
the walk' section of the walk organiser's timeline and ensure
you get those funds in.
