Join us for a fundraising walk on Sunday 13 September through the Surrey countryside to remember our dear colleague Kim Roderick who sadly passed away in September 2022. Kim was at the heart of YMCA East Surrey and those who knew her will never forget her wit, warm nature and hard work.
This walk is open to all who would like to support the YMCA’s work in her memory, even if you didn’t know Kim personally.
This event is open to participants aged 16+.

The route will take in the stunning local countryside following paths and trails through Redhill Common and Priory Park before heading to the halfway support stop at Moon Hall School and on to Earlswood Lakes before returning to the YMCA.
The support stop halfway along the route near Moon Hall School will serve hot and cold drinks and snacks to refresh you for the rest of your walk. On arrival back at the YMCA, there will be a BBQ where we can carry on sharing memories and celebrating Kim’s life.

Whilst there is no set fundraising target for this event, we ask that you consider fundraising to support our Life Change Fund, which was set up by Kim, to support our work transforming young lives in East Surrey.
In 2026, we are aiming to raise £70,000 through our Life Change Fund to transform our new supported housing development in Salfords into a real home for 14 young people facing homelessness. Your fundraising will provide essential items such as bedding, furniture and kitchen equipment to make young residents feel safe and valued. £2,000 will kit out a young person’s bedroom. By fundraising for us, you’re helping to give vulnerable young people a fresh start and the chance to build a brighter future.
Join us in making a difference and creating a brighter future for young people by setting up a fundraising page or making a donation.
