Inaugural Light Fund Social Walk AnnouncedInaugural Light Fund Social Walk Announced

The Light Fund Social Walk will be held in London on Aug. 26 to create an opportunity for a licensing meet-up. The walk will be led by Light Fund trustee Ian Downes and will start at Vauxhall Station at 10:30 a.m. outside the main entrance. There is no charge for the walk. 

“The idea is to create an opportunity for Licensing people to meet up in a relaxed way and to take a gentle walk together,” says Ian Downes, trustee, Light Fund. “Hopefully there will be a few interesting sights to take in along the way and some London history shared. It is very informal, but we hope it will appeal to the licensing industry particularly those that work at home or in small teams.” 

People interested in joining the walk are asked to e-mail Ian Downes at [email protected]. Depending on numbers there will be a guided walk along the river Thames ending up in Rotherhithe for lunch and drinks and there may be a single group or smaller walking groups. 

Participants will be responsible for their own lunch and drinks. The walk will be on pavements and along the Thames Path, so walking shoes and water are recommended. The walk is likely to take around two and a half hours with a few stops along the way.
