Meadowhall Shopping Centre, Sunday 3rd August. Registration from 9am, walk starts at 10am.
Get ready for the Red Shoe Walk! A fun, family-friendly walk around the outskirts of Meadowhall on Sunday the 3rd August.
You can don your own pair of red shoes, or grab a free pair of red shoe covers before walking the 3km route to raise funds for vital dementia care projects in Sheffield.
Why red shoes?
The colour red can increase brain wave activity in people with dementia. It easily catches their attention. It’s a colour that can be seen clearly, even through to the late stages of dementia. Help us create a sea of red around Meadowhall shopping centre and show your support. Everyone who takes part will get an exclusive Red Shoe Walk t-shirt to wear on the day.
Places cost just £5 per adult, £3 per child or £14 for a family of four. Under 3’s go free!
Our route is flat and accessible making it ideal for all ages and abilities.
Join us for a warm up with none other than music legend and charity ambassador Tony Christie!
Sonic the Hedgehog will also be there (in his red shoes!) to help us get warmed up, alongside Transformers Bumblebee and Optimus Prime and Gladiators finalist, Bronte!

We ask that everyone taking part in the Red Shoe Walk aims to raise a minimum of £40, but there’s nothing to stop you raising more than that! Our friendly fundraising team are here to support you every step of the way to help you meet your target – they'll help you set up your fundraising page and send you plenty of useful tips.
We don’t require your fundraising target to be met in order to take part, but we hope you will join us in raising as much as possible for dementia care initiatives across Sheffield.
Funds raised will help improve hospital spaces and activities, provide specialist dementia training for NHS staff, volunteers and family carers, and help people with dementia to live independently.
You can read more about our dementia appeal and the projects you will be helping to support on this page.
For further information drop us a line at charity@shct.nhs.net or call one of our fundraising team on 0114 700 4430.
*You must register for the walk in advance. We are unable to offer places to join the walk on the day. Registration closes midnight Sunday 27th July 2025.
