WALKERS are being encourage to pull on their boots and raise cash for the NSPCC by joining the annual Blenheim Spring walk.

Participants can choose to do two miles, four-and-a-half miles or nine miles around the grounds of Blenheim Palace on Saturday, April 20.

The money raised will help support vulnerable children in the UK.

Fiona Turner, NSPCC fundraising manager, said: “The Blenheim Spring walk is a wonderful event for the whole family and a really cost effective way to access the beautiful grounds and facilities of Blenheim Palace.

“We really value the support of our local volunteers and participants who give up their time to make this event happen year on year, and we hope to beat last year’s £5,200 total.”

Children will be able to take part in a nature trail and climb inside a large hollow tree from the Harry Potter films.

Walkers are also welcome to experience the butterfly house, maze and children’s adventure playground.
