At Ethical Good, we are passionate about supporting initiatives that bring people together for a greater purpose. That’s why we’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on the incredible work being done by Military vs Cancer, a charity dedicated to supporting military personnel and their families affected by cancer. Their latest challenge—a stunning trek along Hadrian’s Wall—is an opportunity to experience history, embrace adventure, and make a real difference to the future of those facing cancer.


Why Walk Hadrian’s Wall?


Hadrian’s Wall isn’t just an ancient relic; it’s a powerful symbol of resilience. Built nearly 2,000 years ago to protect the northern frontier of the Roman Empire, the wall now offers a breath-taking route for walkers seeking challenge and inspiration.


With Military vs Cancer, this historic journey takes on even greater significance—every step helps raise funds for those facing the battle of their lives.
