Walkers' Passports Fund School Outdoor Gear

Profits generated from the sale of Coast to Coast walk "passports" have been channeled into providing outdoor equipment for primary schools. These passports, priced at £15, allow walkers to collect unique stamps along the 190-mile route from St Bees Head to Robin Hood's Bay.

In 2025, Richmond Community Interest Company (CIC) donated £1,000 from passport revenue to The Outdoor Guide Foundation (TOGF). This contribution enabled the foundation to supply wellies and waterproofs to three Richmond primary schools: St Mary's School, Richmond Methodist School, and Trinity Academy.

The CIC received over £24,000 in funding for passport development from local authorities along the trail. The booklet also offers walkers discounts from participating businesses, with some profits reinvested by the CIC to support outdoor pursuits.
