The scenic route will follow the Grantham Canal from Redmile for around 22 miles and end at the world famous Nottingham sports venue.

If the full distance is too far for some, there's the option of joining at the half-way point at Hickling.

There will be refreshments en route, with afternoon tea and a session’s cricket at the finish plus transport back to your starting point.

Those taking will be asked to raise a minimum of £50 (or £100 for a family) for BEST, via its JustGiving page.

BEST supports thousands of primary school and special education needs children through sport and countryside education.
