Twilight Walk for Maggie’s

-

Fifers are being encouraged to don their walking boots to help people affected by cancer.

Maggie’s has its 12th Twilight Walk in Glenrothes on June 2.

The charity, which provides practical and emotional support at its centre in the grounds of Kirkcaldy’s Victoria Hospital, wants people to sign up to walk either one, five or 10 miles to raise money.

Alison Allan, centre head at Maggie’s Fife, said: “We’re absolutely delighted that the Twilight Walk committee are working with us to continue organising this fantastic community event for all ages and walking abilities

“As a charity Maggie’s relies on donations and fundraisin­g efforts such as the Twilight Walk, which allows us to continue to develop our unique, high quality programme of support, offering the best support possible to people with cancer as well as their family and friends.”

Walk organiser Jackie Gray said: “The walk has been on a fantastic journey over the years.

“It’s really special because of why people take part and continue to take part. It is different from most walks because it isn’t in a big city but right here in Glenrothes, making it very local for people in Fife to participat­e.

“We hope Fifers will continue to get behind it and register this year.”

Walkers will set off from the Lomond Centre at 7.30pm.
