To mark the 6 month anniversary
Come shine a light with Ulfa Aid!

Come and embark on an exciting night walk with Ulfa Aid along the dynamic and awe inspiring Southbank. Take in the vast architecture or simply enjoy seeing the city illumined at night along the Thames riverside. Ulfa Aid is undertaking an exciting 5k walk along the Southbank to raise money for the construction of an orphanage. For children who sadly lost their families and communities during the 2011 Japanese Tsunami and Earthquake. Take in sites such as the London Eye, Big Ben, Embankment bridge, Waterloo bridge, Blackfriars bridge, Oxo tower, Southbank centre and The National Theatre, along with many other sights.

This night walk is a fun and exciting evening for all the family to enjoy.

Ulfa Aid is a charity that believes in helping to build communities and relations in the U.K and internationally. Whether it’s caused by natural disasters, conflict or poverty. Ulfa Aid reaches out to communities and people who are in need and often overlooked. The word Ulfa in Arabic means to connect hearts, and we at Ulfa Aid do exactly that! Bringing together hearts, minds and people. Of differing backgrounds, ages and races.
