Join the walk, make the difference

Capetonians are called to lace up and do their bit to feed a hungry child with the annual Peninsula School Feeding Association (PSFA) Blisters for Bread charity fun walk on Sunday 31 August.

According to the organisers, over 700 people have already entered with this year's target being 8 000 walkers.

For the past 57 years proceeds from the event have been making a difference in the lives of thousands of hungry children by providing daily nutritious meals to learners across the Western Cape.

The walk will start in Stephan Way, Green Point, and finish at the Green Point Common Sports Ground. It offers two scenic route options along Cape Town's iconic Sea Point Promenade. A 10 km walk which starts at 07:30 and a 5 km walk starting at 08:00.
