Thanks to the incredible generosity of the community, this year’s total marks one of the most successful Walk to Remember events to date.

“We are absolutely thrilled and completely lost for words,” said Mel Dixon, Events and Challenges Manager at St Mary’s Hospice. “Every single person who donated, walked, or supported us has helped make Walk to Remember what it is today. From the bottom of our hearts — thank you.”
