On 9 September 2023, our chairman, Brian Heffernan, and treasurer, Simon Hawes, will be attempting the Thames Bridges Trek to raise much needed funds for the Taxi Charity.
The 25 km route, which zig-zags through Central London, over 16 historic bridges, is expected to attract 2,000 walkers who will be able to take in unrivalled views of the London skyline and some historic landmarks.
The walkers will set out from Putney Bridge, have a mid point rest stop near the Oval Cricket Ground for some snacks and drinks, and then it’s a party style finish line celebration in Southwark Park past the final crossing, the majestic Tower Bridge.
Brian and Simon are hoping that other volunteer cab drivers will join them to support our '75 for 75' fundraising campaign.
