IT TAKES A VILLAGE, CRYSTAL PALACE

Join us on Tues 27th May in Crystal Palace Park for a peaceful walk in aid of Unicef’s Gaza Emergency Appeal for Children in Crisis.

Unicef says:

“The collapse of the ceasefire on March 18th has had a catastrophic impact on children and families throughout Gaza and the wider State of Palestine. The devastation on children is profound. With aid being denied, 71,000 children are now facing acute malnutrition and nearly 17,000 pregnant and breastfeeding women also require treatment.

Throughout the blockade, Unicef has been working to support children and families in Gaza. Between March and April 2025, this included

• Screening more than 85,000 babies and children for acute malnutrition, admitting affected children to treatment programmes.
• Reaching 23,700 children with ready-to-use complementary foods and preventive supplements.
• Enabling 1.5 million people to access safe water.

Unicef are also calling for a lasting political solution to the crisis, so that children in Palestine and Israel can grow up in peace, free from the shadow of violence.

The whole family are welcome to this walk.

Meeting/start point is at Brown & Green Life Cafe in the park at 10.45am, ready to set off on a gentle walk together at 11am.

We will aim to finish no later than 12pm back at the cafe.

All proceeds go directly to Unicef’s appeal. If you can’t make this event in person, but would still like to donate, you are welcome to book a spot and add your contribution.

Thank you.
