The Blisters for Bread Charity Family Fun Walk is an annual event that brings participants of all ages and fitness levels together to walk in support of the Peninsula School Feeding Association. This year’s event is slated for Sunday, 27 August on Sea Point Promenade and Beach Road.
Participants have the unique opportunity to embrace a worthy cause while stepping out of their comfort zone. Some may even choose to walk barefoot and risk a blister or two while taking on the 10-kilometre or 5-kilometre challenge. This gesture reinforces the event’s focus on creating awareness around child hunger.
The main objective of the fundraiser is to raise money to feed hungry school children in the Western Cape. The Blisters for Bread Charity Family Fun Walk promises not only to be an unforgettable event for the entire family but also to contribute significantly to the fight against child hunger.
Participants and residents should be aware of potential road disruptions in the Sea Point area during the event. Organizers reassure that all routes will be reopened by 1 pm at the latest on Sunday.
Full road closures include the following streets: Seacliffe to Victoria Road, Queens Road to Beach Road, Vlei Road to Fritz Sonnenberg Road, Fritz Sonnenberg Road to Beach Road, and Beach Road between Three Anchor Bay and Beach Road direction Green Point.
Soft road closures, allowing access for residents and businesses, will occur at Beach Road to Rothersay Place, Bay Road and Fritz Sonnenberg Road, Vlei Road and Helen Suzman Boulevard, Granger Bay Boulevard and Fritz Sonnenberg Road, and Beach Road and Surrey Place.
Lane closures will affect Beach Road between Queen Road and Worcester Road and Beach Road between Three Anchor Bay and Beach Road direction Green Point. Alternative routes and detours are available for traffic exiting the V&A Waterfront towards Sea Point via Granger Bay Boulevard and Helen Suzman Boulevard. Traffic from Sea Point towards the V&A Waterfront should proceed using Helen Suzman Boulevard/Main Road Green Point, Granger Bay Boulevard, or Portswood Road.
As the day of the event approaches, it’s essential to proceed with caution and keep an eye out for walkers ahead. The Blisters for Bread Charity Family Fun Walk not only offers a chance to enjoy a scenic walk but also serves as a reminder of the importance of coming together as a community to support a noble cause. Be part of this memorable event and contribute to the fight against child hunger in the Western Cape.
