Walkers can tackle a stretch of the Hertfordshire Way to help support children's charities in Royston.

The Great Big Walk for Herts is being organised by Helping Herts, who bring together local charities.

Each charity will walk a different leg of the journey - between nine and 15 miles - on Saturday, September 30, covering 180 miles in total.

The Royston to Wallington leg will support Keech Hospice, while the Hare Street to Royston leg will support Helping Herts itself.

Currently 14 teams are each walking a different section of the route, which travels through St Albans, Kings Langley, Shenley, Hertford, Bishop's Stortford and more.

Gordon Morrison, co-founder of Helping Herts, said: "It’s going to be a great day out with all the charities out walking different sections of the Hertfordshire Way in one day.
