Put your best foot forward and join the John Bradburne Pilgrimage

Invitation from the John Bradburne Memorial Society (JBMS)

We’re pleased to announce that JBMS will be running our annual pilgrimage in Cumbria on Saturday 13 June.

This is a physically demanding journey through mountainous terrain, covering a significant distance. The mountains are steep, and participants should have a good level of fitness and be comfortable with prolonged walking and elevation.

This special day will begin with Mass at St John The Evangelist Church, Skirwith, celebrated by Bishop Paul Swarbrick, before we set off together on a memorable climb to High Cup Nick.

What to expect:
•    A 13km (approx 8 miles) guided climb through stunning scenery
•    A day of prayer, reflection and fellowship
•    Refreshments in Skirwith Village Hall after the walk.

Please note this climb is not for the faint-hearted and requires a good level of fitness, to complete the pilgrimage.

Whether you join us for the full day or simply for the Mass, you are warmly welcome.
There is no fixed cost to take part, but a donation towards the Mutemwa Leprosy Care Centre is greatly appreciated.

If you are interested in taking part, please register your interest via email: [email protected]

Further details will be shared closer to the time with those who register.
