The Annual Bromley Mind Sponsored Walk will be taking place on Sunday 25th July 2010 at 10.30am.

All the proceeds will go towards the provision of catering at the three Mind day centres in Bromley. Catering at the Mind day centres is under threat due to funding issues and is greatly valued by the service users who often do not feel up to cooking at home. It is a 4 mile walk.
