On 10th May join us for a 14 mile charity walk through the beautiful New Forest, with pub stops on route. The very popular ‘Melodie’s Walk’.

Starting at the Alice Lisle Ringwood with coffee and bacon butties, the walk takes you across the New Forest to the Royal Oak Fritham for a traditional pub lunch*. After lunch the walk takes you back to the Alice Lisle, where you can enjoy a light dinner, entertainment, raffle and an auction from 5:30pm.

Fancy dress is optional. This year’s fancy dress theme is 'The Wild West'. Encouraged but not compulsory.

Register from 9am to set off at 10am - £15 entrance fee which includes bacon butties and entry to the evening event at the Alice Lisle - 100% proceedings go to Macmillan Caring Locally.
