Plett Walk Details: 

DATE: 19 October 

TIME: 09:30 AM to 12:00 PM 

VENUE: St. Thomas Methodist Church, 1 Muller Street 

What happens during the Walk and what will it look like? 

It is a silent, single-file line walk through town. 

We all wear black on the day to be noticed as a unified cause. 

We carry posters and hand out fact sheets as we walk. 

The Walk starts and ends at the St Thomas Methodist Church on 1 Muller Street and the route is about 2,6 km long. 

Day-of registration and check-in opens at 9h30. 

A21 Walk For Freedom t-shirts will be available for purchase on the day. 

To celebrate 10 years of Walk For Freedom we will also have stalls selling food and drinks. 

Take a stance against human trafficking and help to keep our residents and visitors safe. 

There is no age limit, so prams or walking sticks are welcome. As well as wheelchairs, if you are able, or have someone assisting you. Remember to bring a water bottle and a camera / camera phone. 

You can register for the Plett Walk by going to the A21 Website and following through until you find the Plett Walk or you can use the direct link: https://www.a21.org//shop-event.php?intid=4012  More details to follow, but for now if you can announce it at your church and provide people with the information to be able to register – they will get all the event information there too.
