Fancy dress walk

The Southend City Council Educational Psychology Team are taking on a fun, feel-good challenge to support a brilliant local cause!

On 17 June 2025 at 12 noon, we will be completing a one-mile sponsored walk along Southend seafront, from the casino to the Sea Life Centre, all dressed in our best silly and fun fancy dress.

We are raising money for Packed with Smiles, a charity that provides children in our local community with new school uniform parcels and other school essentials, helping every child to attend school feeling equal, confident and ready to create their own future.

We are proud to be supporting local families, one step at a time.

You can support us by sponsoring our team, making a donate on our JustGiving page or joining us on the day in your own fun fancy dress, bringing along a donation and walking with us!

Every donation and every smile helps. Thank you for your support!
