The London Walk 2026

Join us for the London Walk 2026, marking the 5th year of this powerful overnight challenge and the only walking event created specifically for the homelessness sector.

Walking through the night offers a unique opportunity to reflect on the experiences of people who are homeless – not only those forced to sleep rough, but those who walk for hours, take night buses or stay awake in 24-hour spaces to protect themselves.

By taking part, you’ll be helping Look Ahead continue to support people to find safety, stability and a place to call home.

Two Look Ahead staff take on the London Walk.
