Leeds is set to host the vibrant and inspiring Leeds Children’s Heart Surgery Fund (CHSF) Superhero Walk in 2024.
This annual event invites families and supporters to don their superhero capes and join in a fun-filled day to support children undergoing heart surgeries and their families. The 2024 Superhero Walk is scheduled to take place at the picturesque AMT Headingley Stadium, offering an ideal setting for heroes of all ages to gather. The event will kick off at 10 AM and wrap up by 2 PM, providing participants with four hours packed with activities, entertainment, and community spirit.
Participants can look forward to an exciting route that winds through the stadium’s concourse, allowing everyone, from toddlers to grandparents, to walk at their own pace. During the time, there will be live entertainment, food stalls featuring local delights, and various family-centric activities designed to engage heroes of all ages.
In recognition of their bravery and commitment, each child participating in the walk will receive a superhero cape and a commemorative medal. To help families maximize their fundraising efforts, CHSF will provide a comprehensive activity and fundraising pack filled with creative ideas and tools.
