March 15th: Sponsored walk to celebrate 25 years of The Parent House
Parents, children, staff and supporters of The Parent House are walking 2.5kms, from The Parent House to Caledonian Park on March 15th 2025 to celebrate our 25th birthday.
Our Trustees are also leading the 25 for 25 challenge! Walk at least 25 minutes on at least 25 days for a month to celebrate our 25th Anniversary.
These healthy, happy activities will help us to raise much needed funds, so we can continue to support Islington parents through hard times, and help them to achieve their hopes and goals in better times.

The Parent House opened in the year 2000 and, since then, have seen thousands of parents walk through our doors. They have learnt English, developed skills for work, baked cakes, made speeches, won prizes, played games, written reports, developed skills, stood up for their rights and have been given food and friendship when they needed it.
We will celebrate 25 years of our support for Islington families by holding special events throughout 2025, the first one is a sponsored walk and we want you to join us.
When: Saturday March the 15th
Who: parents, children, staff and supporters
What: walking 2.5k to raise funds to support our little house with a big heart
We are walking together through the streets of Islington to another Islington gem, Caledonian Park. This will be a fun and healthy activity linked to 4 of the 5 ways to Wellbeing.
1. Connect with other people 😊
2. Be physically active 😊
3. Learn new skills
4. Give to others 😊
5. Pay attention to the present moment (mindfulness) 😊
2.5k is not a very long walk. We are walking this far so we can include everybody, young and old and of all abilities. Being inclusive is at The Parent House’s heart.
