Make a donation to the Ramblers 75th Anniversary Fund

The Ramblers 75th Anniversary Fund will be used to help us continue the direct charitable work which is at the very heart of the Ramblers, work that we've been carrying out for the last 75 years and which we hope to continue for another 75, and beyond.

This means:

  • Protecting the countryside and urban walking environments
  • Safeguarding the natural beauty of the countryside
  • Expanding rights of responsible access for everyone
  • Educating the public about the health and environmental benefits of walking

The money raised for the fund won't go towards our admin or running costs.

We rely almost entirely on donations from our dedicated members and supporters — without you we would not have made it to our 75th birthday.

Thank you so much for your support.

Fill Your Flask

There are two main ways get involved with Fill Your Flask.

Our Baton Walk launches on 31st December 2009 and, as the baton travels around the country, we'd love each group to hold a Fill Your Flask party to celebrate each new stage of the walk. It's an easy way to raise funds for the Ramblers and a fantastic way to generate publicity for both the Baton Walk and our 75th anniversary.

If you're taking part in the Baton Walk and you'd like some advice on how to publicise your Fill Your Flask launch party, contact Ruth Somerville on 020 7338 8532.

Or you could hold your own Fill Your Flask party, whichever way suits you, during 2010, our 75th year. Here are some ideas…

Out and about: Invite friends, family and fellow ramblers along for a walk, stopping along the way for a birthday toast to keep your energy levels up.

At home: Invite friends over for a cuppa and a slice of birthday cake, in return for a small donation to the Ramblers.

The big 7-5: How about a proper birthday party? It could be anywhere from the village hall to your back garden, just make sure you toast to 75 years of rambling!

However you choose to celebrate, just ask everyone to bring along a flask to fill (make sure you have some cups handy too, for anyone who forgets!) and ask them for a donation of 75p, or however much they'd like, to the Ramblers.

You can send us the money you raise by cheque, made out to the Ramblers and sent FAO Ruth Collins, Ramblers, 2nd Floor Camelford House, 87-90 Albert Embankment, London SE1 7TW. Alternatively, for telephone donations call 020 7339 8500, or donate online on our donation page.

Don't forget to take photographs and post them to our Flickr group, Ramblers 75. We'd love to see pictures of ramblers everywhere toasting our big 7-5! We'll post our favourites on this site.
