This June, the Northern Ireland Veterans Commissioner’s Office will be undertaking a sponsored walk to mark the 110th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme.
Over 6 days, across 6 counties, covering 60 miles, we will walk in remembrance of those who served, while supporting two incredible charities:
Somme Association
Air Ambulance Northern Ireland
We warmly invite veterans, their families, and supporters to join us along the way, whether for a full day or just a few miles.
Walk Schedule:
• 1 June – County Antrim: Cullybackey → Ballymena → Broughshane
• 2 June – County Down: Annalong → Kilkeel
• 3 June – County Armagh: Armagh → Portadown
• 4 June – County Fermanagh: Brookeborough → Enniskillen
• 5 June – County Tyrone: Dungannon → Cookstown
• 6 June – County Londonderry: Castlerock → Coleraine → Portrush
Start times for each day will be shared on our Facebook page closer to the time, so please keep an eye out for updates.
This is more than a walk, it’s a chance to reflect, remember, and stand together as a community.
