Whitechapel Centre is hosting a waterfront walk to help raise funds
1 hour ago
The Whitechapel Centre’s Waterfront walk is back this February where participants will stroll along the famous Merseyside Waterfront and fundraise in aid of the centre.
The Waterfront Walk was first inspired by the homeless charity’s Outreach Team, who are out every morning come rain or shine from 6am, walking 5 miles or more around the city streets to find and help people who are sleeping rough. The public can show their support by taking part in the walk starting at Nova Scotia in the Liverpool City Centre, ambling along the Otterspool Promenade and ending at the sitting bull statue in Aigburth. The event can be enjoyed by all ages so get the whole family, office, school or college and even your beloved dogs involved, to do their part to help end homelessness in Liverpool.


While strolling along the promenade participants get to enjoy the dawn of a new day and hopefully a beautiful sunrise. At the finish line the charity will be distributing a delicious breakfast butty to celebrate and congratulate everybody on the walk.
Whilst there is lots of fun to be had, The Whitechapel Centre wants to use the opportunity to deliver an important message about homelessness.
