Pilgrims follow the Cross in a procession at Walsingham

The Roman Catholic National Shrine of Our Lady
Walsingham
Norfolk

This pilgrimage is occurring simultaneously with our Carfin Pilgrimage in Scotland. Unfortunately, this pilgrimage is now fully booked.
Our popular Day of Pilgrimage returns, with friends of Aid to the Church in Need uniting in prayer at the national Marian shrines of England and Scotland. During the day we will remember our suffering brothers and sisters in Christ who endure violence and persecution for their faith.
We will again be organising coaches from London Victoria to Walsingham, departing at 8am. Coach tickets are £20 per person. We will send you full details of coach arrangements after you make your booking.
Pilgrims are also welcome to make their own way to Walsingham. We will assemble at 11.45 at the Shrine – the Aid to the Church in Need party will be clearly recognisable by pennants bearing our red logo.
