This will be the 7th outing for this epic of a sponsored walk raising money for the STEPS education programmes of the Surrey Care Trust. STEPS supports young people who are struggling to fit into and thrive at mainstream school and who are often coping with other challenges and difficult situations in their lives.

STEPS Across Surrey 2009 took place recently and is expected to raise well over £8,000. The route was 26 miles from Guildford and back through the Surrey Hills and among the 50 walkers was Surrey's top policeman Mark Rowley, the Chief Constable.

e will be announcing the route for 2010 soon. If you want to find out more about this great personal challenge which helps give young people more hopeful futures - in beautiful countryside - we will be posting more information on our website over the next few weeks. Or you can call our events organiser Vicky on 01483 412751. www.surreycaretrust.org.uk
