Light Up The Night for a loved one

-

THE popular East Cheshire Hospice annual memory walk is to have a makeover.

The spring walk, which is a celebratio­n of life and the chance to reflect on loved ones, has a new name – Light Up The Night.

As in the previously named Starlight Walk, there will be a choice of three different walks – a 2.5km loop, two loops for 5k or four loops for 10k through the beautiful grounds of Capesthorn­e Hall.

The walk takes place at dusk on the evening of Friday, April 5, and walkers will carry a paper lantern to light the way along the route as the sun sets.

During the walk, attendees will also have the opportunit­y to float a lantern on the lake at Capesthorn­e, in celebratio­n of the life of the person or people they are rememberin­g.

There will be music, entertainm­ent, food and drink and the evening will come to a spectacula­r end with a firework display to Light Up The Night.

Early bird packages are now on sale until the end of the month.

Tickets are £16 for over 16s and £11 for ages 5-15 and includes entry to the event, a unique Light up the Night T-shirt and a hand-held paper lantern.

Walkers are asked to try and raise at least £50 of sponsorshi­p and a fundraisin­g pack full of ideas is available on the website www.east cheshireho­spice.org.uk or contact a member of the fundraisin­g team on 01625 433477.
