Event Parking is available at Wollaton Park, please use postcode NG8 2AE and follow signs for Memory Walk on the approach to the venue.  

Parking charges apply - £3 for up to 3 hours, and £5 all day via the RingGo app. Please arrive in good time to avoid queues, and note that parking is on grass. 

Memory Walk will start and finish in the event site by the lake, which is located behind Wollaton Hall. Please note, this area is on grass.

There are two Memory Walk routes – you choose which to walk on the day of the event. Please note all routes and distances are subject to change, and suitable footwear is recommended. 

The shorter 2km walk is a gentle stroll around the park’s lake, where you will see the iconic hall once home to Batman in the blockbuster The Dark Knight Rises. This route is suitable for Memory Walkers of all ages and for pushchairs and wheelchairs with assistance.

The longer 5.5km walk is a little more challenging, and will take you around more of the park, including grass and woodland paths where you may see the park’s resident deer. This route is not suitable for pushchairs or wheelchairs due to the nature of the pathways.

Safety of all Memory Walk participants, volunteers and staff is our top priority. We are monitoring the COVID-19 situation carefully and working hard to deliver amazing events, whilst following all legal guidance and precautions.

All our Memory Walk events hold the 'We’re Good To Go' industry standard, which means you can be reassured we have everything in place to keep you safe. Each event has been thoroughly risk-assessed and we've implemented a number of processes and measures from the guidance provided by the Government. 

Memory Walk may look a little different this year, but it will still retain the amazing atmosphere that makes the event so special!
