How do I get there?

Wellness Walk isn’t about being first across the finish line; this is a friendly, non-competitive walk. You’ll come together with like-minded people from the diabetes community, all prioritising wellness, at the same time as raising funds to support those affected by diabetes.

Paying your registration fee helps us cover the cost of putting on your Wellness Walk, but it’s your fundraising which can really make a difference. Support those with diabetes live better for longer by aiming to raise £150 by taking part in Wellness Walk Glasgow.
