Just checked, super close to the target of £5k now. I'm guessing everyone reading this has donated already but if family, friends and random acquaintances can be persuaded we should go over the target....
How much was raised last year by Charlton Life? We will have to try to beat that total. There must be a bit more money about seeing that the majority didn't buy season tickets this season.

We raised around £10.5k last year, but I think we have to be realistic about things. Over the last 15 months over £55k has gone into the Protest Fund and I suspect that's virtually all from people on here, and similarly the £4.3k raised just 6 weeks ago for Ian Oxley's funeral costs.
What we have raised so far for this has been fantastic and all contributions big and small have been hugely appreciated.
So we smashed through the £5k mark thanks to @LargeAddick@Onlyme Flaggy and Anon. Much appreciated guys, and with that BillyBirchmore gives it the thumbs up of approval.
We are not far off the £5.5k point if anyone wanted to help get us there...
I hope you are excited for Upbeats Day tomorrow, Saturday April 8th.
We look forward to seeing you bright and early at Sparrows Lane at 8.30 am to register and get some breakfast.
The full itinerary of the day is attached.
Please follow this link, to see a map of the route we will be taking tomorrow.
After leaving the training ground at 9am, we will travel through the middle of Eltham and across Blackheath.
At around 10.30am, the walkers will reach Greenwich Park and take in great views from the Royal Observatory, before heading into Greenwich’s historic town centre, past the Old Naval College and Queen’s House.
We will then continue to Charlton and to our home, The Valley, whilst being greeted by fans before The Addicks’ home game against Southend United.
There is still time to fundraise or donate to Upbeats Day here>>>
We’re currently around £14,000 and aiming to match our total of £37,000 from last year.
Many thanks again for all you support for the Upbeats and I hope you have a fantastic day tomorrow
I wonder if it would be possible to incorporate more parks in this walk next time, specially the Green Chain at Oxleas Woods and there's about 3 in Charlton... much nicer than trudging the Woolwich Road, though they are a bit more hilly than this. I guess we cant come back down the Thames Path because it bends so much it would put more mileage on.
