Join #TeamRaystede to take on the spooky Halloween Walk to help injured and unwanted animals in need!

We've partnered with the Ultra Challenge Series to offer you the chance to complete the 10km or 25km challenge on Saturday 25th October.

So, gather your bravest guys and ghouls to make up a team – or go it alone if you dare and meet up with other chilling challengers. Dress to distress, and the creepy dungeon keepers at The Oval start and finish will meet, greet and shock you!

Once you escape, there are ghostly looped routes, with zombie rest stops, and if you manage to get back in one piece there’s a macabre medal, a glass of the Devil’s fizz, some horrific hot food and drink – and a souvenir bobble hat to ward off the spirits as you head off.

This is a test of spirit and determination, and a great way to achieve something really special for Raystede.
