Wow! We managed to raise an incredible £2,355.50 on Saturday’s Smiley Pub Walk!

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, donated, and supported us throughout the day. Your generosity means so much and helps us continue supporting young cancer patients and their families through the Smiley Smiley Josh Riley Foundation.

We’d also like to give a special thank you to Scott Bellat Bespoke Business Brandwear for producing the fantastic event t-shirts.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us on the Smiley Pub Walk! 🍻😊

What an amazing day we had, with lots of laughs, plenty of miles walked, and fantastic support for the Smiley Smiley Josh Riley Foundation.

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who came along, donated, bought t-shirts, shook buckets, and helped make the day such a success. Every penny raised will help us continue Josh’s legacy and support the causes that mean so much to us.

A very special mention has to go to Molly, our Chief Bucket Shaker! 🪣⭐ She worked tirelessly throughout the day collecting donations and did an absolutely brilliant job.

We hope everyone enjoyed themselves as much as we did. The big question is… should we make the Smiley Pub Walk an annual event? 🤔🍻

Let us know what you think in the comments!

Thank you all once again for your support. 💛

Just a reminder that all Pub Trail t-shirt order forms need to be completed by 9th May so we can get everything pre-ordered and ready in time for the walk! 👕The sizes at S- 5XL.

Ideally, we would appreciate payment when submitting your form, however if you’re unable to pay right now, that’s absolutely fine — you can pay later.
