KIND–hearted community members put their best foot forward to raise money for good causes.
More than 50 people from Slough & South Bucks Ahmadiyya Muslim Elders Association. (AMEA Slough & South Bucks), joined a crowd of 4000 to walk for peace in London.
AMEA Slough & South Bucks is an auxiliary organisation of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Slough & South Bucks.
The annual 8km march in Newham, East London is organised by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Elders Association.
Every year walkers from across the country raise more than a quarter of a million pounds for more than 90 UK charities.
Councillor Atiq Ahmad Bhatti, President of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Slough said: “This year we have seen an incredible show of unity from charities, organisations and members of the public who have come from around the UK to walk for peace to help raise funds for over 90 UK charities. When work on the Charity Walk for Peace began last year there was a motto that was used: Let’s work together.
“Today we have witnessed that indeed serving humanity through fund raising builds bridges of hope, friendship and brotherhood and we have seen the immense success when we do indeed work together for the greater good.”
The 4,000 participants expect to have raised £750,000 in total.
