Route
Enjoy a beautiful woodland walk through the park and take in its rich variety of plants and wildlife. You'll pass by the idyllic setting of Keepers Pool, wind through Wyndley Wood, and venture through Sutton Park's National Nature Reserve before crossing the finish line to claim your well-deserved medal.
Accessiblity
The fully signposted route is mostly on hardstanding path with some smaller sections on woodland terrain and grass. The route is accessible for both wheelchairs and pushchairs with assistance. There will be volunteer marshals along the route to support you if needed.

Facilities
There are event toilets available next to the event village (including accessible loos).
Food and drink will be available to purchase within the event village and you are welcome to bring your own refreshments.
How to get here
Sutton Coldfield Railway Station is approximately one mile from Sutton Park (typically a 20 minute walk). The park is also serviced by multiple bus lines.
If driving, please access the park through 'Streetly Gate' which is on Thornhill Road. The w3w for this is - ///dish.cones.alive
Once through the gate proceed into the park where you will be directed by event marshals.
It was great to take part in the Walk For A Cure event and see so many people coming together determined to make their contribution to finding a cure for dementia.
Participants included people living with a dementia, their carers and people, like me, remembering loved ones who had died with dementia. It was inspirational to see so many traveling many miles to raise money to fund such essential research.
- John Hirst, walking in memory of his beloved wife, Pat
- Barry Gray, who is living with dementia
- Jacky Schloss, walking in honour of her parents who have both been impacted by dementia.
- Dr Helen Beaumont, a dementia researcher, walking in memory of her husband, Clive
