I have supported the Walk4Matt before (as a day walker), I walked by myself unsure what I was going to find. Well, I found a warm welcome, smiles and encouragement. In a chance meeting on a tow path, I was collected up by Craig and Amy, who took pity on the lone walker.  After completing that day’s walk, I felt like we had been friend’s forever. We kept in touch over the years, supporting another Charity event and catching from time to time at our beloved Leicester Tigers. Craig and Amy continued to raise funds for the Matt Hampson Foundation until illness took Craig way too soon in October 2021, with the Foundation supporting Craig throughout. So, the walk this year is for the Foundation, but it is also for Craig and to support Amy who is also walking the full event. 

Looking forward to 17^th June already. Thank you in advance for your support.

The Matt Hampson Foundation inspires and supports young people seriously injured through sport through its unique Get Busy Living centre in rural Leicestershire. The centre provides expert physiotherapy, specialist personal training, support, mentoring and advice to people suffering a life-changing injury. The centre’s doors were opened in 2018 by Founder and ex-England and Leicester Tigers rugby player Matt Hampson, who himself experienced a life-changing injury in 2005.
