Glasgow Kiltwalk 2026

Glasgow Kiltwalk 2026

Posted 29th April 2026

Our most recent fundraising event, the Glasgow Kiltwalk, proved to be a really great day, made all the better by the weather showing up in all its glory and the fantastic effort of everyone involved.

Taking place on Sunday 26th April 2026, 25 dedicated walkers donned their NHP tops and set out across Glasgow to raise funds in support of NHP and the young people across its Local House Projects. With donations still coming in, we expect the total to reach just over £3500, matching the brilliant achievement of 2024’s Edinburgh Kiltwalk.

Nathan, a young person from a House Project in Scotland said;

"It was a very chill experience, I enjoyed chatting and the scenic pathwway. The three and a half mile walk was so easy it made me wanna do the longer walk next time"

The day brought staff and young people together for a shared challenge, with time to take in the beautiful views around Glasgow along the way. While there were certainly a few achy muscles and blistered toes by the end, that didn’t stop the team pushing on, walking like they were on a mission and finishing in spectacular style.

A young person from a House Project in Scotland said;

"In a group we completed the wee wander in the Kiltwalk and I loved every second, even the hard bits, I’d definitely do it again. I am aiming to do the better walk next time"

We are incredibly proud of our team and grateful to everyone who took part and supported the event. Your contribution makes a real difference, helping young people take important steps towards independent and fulfilling lives.

If you’d like to stay up to date with future events and ways to get involved, please follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook, website, and newsletter.

Once again, thank you for your continued support. Together, we are helping young people build connected and fulfilling lives.

Aspirational Awards Update
Aspirational Awards Update

In May, the Aspirational Awards panel awarded just over £15,000 to 19 young people across our LHPs. It was inspiring to see such a wide range of ideas, goals and determination reflected in the applications, and a privilege to support more young people as they take their next steps forward. Funding in Round 9 supported training + graduate employment scheme, equipment for a baking business and support for other businesses, sports sessions, music lessons, lifeguard course, and day trips. We have also recently completed a 3 year review of our Aspirational Awards and the impact they’ve had. Over the past 3 years, we’ve awarded over £147,000 to 138 young people (not including figures from our most recent round in May). If you would like to find out more about how to support the Aspirational Awards please get in touch.
