Walk for Nakba 78: Steps for Remembrance and Justice

This year, our community came together with profound purpose for the Walk for Nakba 78, marking a vital commemoration of history, resilience, and continuous solidarity. Our dedicated participants stepped up to turn collective remembrance into tangible action, walking to raise both awareness and vital resources. This challenge was about more than just miles; it was a meaningful dedication to ensuring the stories, history, and rights of the Palestinian people are never forgotten.

Walking for History and Hope

The Nakba remains a cornerstone of Palestinian identity and history. By organising and participating in this walk, we sought to bridge the past with the present, showing that our community’s commitment to justice remains unwavering. From families walking together to individuals pushing their personal limits, every stride taken was a collective message that we stand firmly with the Palestinian people in their ongoing struggle for dignity and peace.

Turning Remembrance into Relief: Our Collective Impact

We are incredibly proud to share the final outcomes of the Walk for Nakba 78. Thanks to the relentless dedication of our walkers and the immense generosity of our community, we turned a powerful day of remembrance into a resounding fundraising success.

Together, we raised a total of over £3000! These vital funds will be utilised directly by IF Charity to provide life-saving aid, support, and essential resources to those facing severe hardship. We want to extend our deepest gratitude to every single participant, donor, and volunteer who championed this cause. Your support is making a real, measurable difference and ensuring that hope continues to thrive.
