Student groups plan walk for Gaza aid

Students from groups all across campus are to take part in a walk to raise money for the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

The event, a walk from Harrogate to York, has received the support of Jewish and Islamic societies.

The idea originally came from Chris Etheridge, Treasurer of York Tories, who wanted to hold an apolitical fundraiser.

While the University refused to back the project outright, they supported the initiative shown. “It is always rewarding that our students are so supportive of humanitarian causes. Whether individuals take part in this event is up to them, and we wish it well.”
