Patterdale Parish Boundary Walk
Sat 2nd July 2022
We are ON for 2022!!!!!!
SAT 2nd JULY 2022
This year we are fundraising for Patterdale CofE School, and also the Patterdale Ukrainian relief Fund. This latter fund is a newly created fund to enable the village to provide respite and holidays to Ukrainian Refugees. We are partnering with the Manchester Ukrtainian Club who are aiming to bring both adult and child refugees on day-trips and longer holidays, all for free as our village community will offer accommodation, meals etc. However, we still need to pay for transport to get them here, etc.
All funding raised will be divided equally between Patterdale CofE School and the Patterdale Ukrainian Relief Fund.
Information about the walk can be found below and in the Dropbox folder here.
A form with various ways to donate is here.
PLEASE DONATE, whether you are doing the walk or not.
Many thanks!!
Thank you for all of your interest and support!
All the best

Patterdale Boundary Walk
A High Level Companion to the Ullswater Way
The Patterdale Boundary Walk usually raises funds for the local school and church, and has become a tradition since founded by Stephen Gorton, a resident of Hartsop and long-standing member of the church and founder member of the Patterdale Mountain Rescue Team.
This year due to the special circumstances faced by Ukrainian Refuggees the Boundary Walk will fund the school and the Patterdale Ukrainian Relief Fund, which will provide respite and holidays in the Patterdale Parish area to Ukrainian Refugees.
The walk is about 25 miles long with about 10,300 feet of ascent, and covers many famous mountain names and ridges including Raise, Helvellyn, Nethermost Pike, Dollywagon Pike, Grisedale Tarn, Fairfield, Red Screes, the Kirkstone Pass, High Street, Angle Tarn, and Place Fell. On a good day there are stupendous views throughout the length of the walk. Think of it as a high-level companion to the Ullswater Way!
It is possible to break the walk down into sections and do it on different days if you wish.
Traditionally the walk has been conducted to raise funds for Patterdale Church of England School (the second most remote school in England, and which could not survive financially without generous donations from fund-raising events) and the ministry and work of St Patrick's Church, Patterdale. All donations and money raised are split equally between the two.
Although many people gather to complete the walk traditionally on the first Saturday of July, there is nothing stopping you doing the walk at other times, either in one go, or in sections.
All the information needed for the walks and how to donate can be found in the Dropbox folder and downloaded here:

HOW TO DONATE
The Patterdale Parish Boundary Walk 2022 is raising funds for Patterdale CofE School and Patterdale Ukrainian Relief Fund. Funds will be divided equally between both.
It would be great if you could donate generously to help our fundraising for school (especially as many fundraising events have had to be cancelled over the last 2 years because of COVID), and for our support to Ukrainian Refugees.
