Join us this summer as we walk for people and the planet!
Why we’re walking
Behind the everyday products we use, from timber to palm oil, lies environmental destruction and human rights abuse. Big companies profit while communities in places like Malaysia’s Sarawak rainforest lose their homes and forests.
We’re shedding light on one urgent example: the destruction of Sarawak’s rainforests in Malaysia, driven by UK imports of timber and wood products.
Every year, Sarawak loses about 307.5 square miles of forest, nearly the size of Camden vanishing every 10 days.
We’re calling on the UK government to pass a new law that holds companies accountable.

What Are We Doing?
On 30th August, we’re turning miles into action by walking from Parliament Hill to Parliament, carrying placards and having a great time.
Here’s how you can take part:
- Walk or run, solo or with others, in your own time
Every step counts, whether it’s around your local park or organising a hike with a friend. Just a note, your usual commute doesn’t count! It needs to be intentional. - Track and share your miles
We’ll provide a simple app to log your progress and be part of the collective total. - Spread the word
Raise awareness by sharing the campaign with your friends, family, and community. - Invite others to join
Encourage friends, family, and local groups to walk or run a few miles for the cause. - Final group walk: Saturday 30th August
Join us for the final 6-mile walk from Camden to Parliament , symbolising a week’s worth of deforestation, and help us deliver a powerful message to decision-makers.
Saturday 30 August
We will start at the Parliament Hill Cafe (NW5 1QR) at 10:45am and walk to the Houses of Parliament. This walk will take roughly 2 and a half hours.
