Pathway to Progress Launch Event

Join us on 28 March as we kick off the 2026 Pathway to Progress with our very own in-person launch event!  

Bring your loved ones and furry friends along for a fun-packed day with the PSPA Team! We’ll be celebrating the success of the 2025 Pathway to Progress, sharing the impact this has had since then, and enjoying some of the incredible community spirit we share with our supporters. 

In 2025, the incredible fundraisers, donors and match funders who contributed to our Pathway to Progress campaign collectively raised a fantastic £96,050! 

Whether or not you’ve participated in Pathway to Progress before, this is the perfect moment to get involved, meet fellow fundraisers, and kick-start this next chapter with us.

Accessibility Features

Willen Lake’s Watersports Centre offers excellent accessibility with level access, lifts, accessible toilets, and a dedicated Changing Places facility, fit with an adjustable bed, hoist, and shower. The wider lake features flat paths, disabled parking, and accessible play areas, though some operators’ activities and routes (like steep gradients) need direct contact, with detailed guides available on the Willen Lake website.

FAQs

Where can I park at Willen Lake?

There are many options for parking near Willen Lake. We recommend the Willen Lake South Car Park and the Willen Lake A Car Park. These are the closest parking options to the meeting point, Willen Lake Café. See here for parking charges. Disabled parking is also available.

Will I be able to buy PSPA merchandise on the day?

Yes! We will have a small PSPA pop-up shop on the day, featuring some of our most popular shop items. If you want to purchase anything on the day, we will accept cash or card payments.

Will refreshments be provided on the day?

Unfortunately, refreshments will not be provided at this event. However, we encourage attendees to grab a drink or explore the delicious food options available at Willen Lake Café.

What do I do when I arrive?

Make your way over to the courtyard outside the Willen Lake Café & Watersports Centre. We will get you signed in and up to the event space, where we will welcome everyone before the excitement begins!

Will the event be accessible / wheelchair friendly?

Yes! All Lakeside paths and the figure of eight route we have planned are completely wheelchair accessible and flat. There is a smaller, circular route (around Willen Lake South only), should anyone not want to do the full 5km walk. The event space we have booked above the Willen Lake Café is also very accessible, fitted with a lift as well as stairs.

Can I bring my dogs?

Absolutely, Willen Lake is very dog-friendly. However, the event space we have booked in the Watersports centre is NOT dog-friendly. This shouldn’t stop attendees from bringing their pets, as dogs are welcome in the cosy café space as well as the outdoor seating areas.
