Take part in the Moonlight Walk to raise money for breast cancer

May 27 2009 by Carrie Catterall, Heswall News

THE SECOND ever Moonlight Walk will take place next month in aid of Elm House Breast Care Unit, Clatterbridge .

Last year the event raised £15,500 for Breakthrough Breast Cancer.

The 10-mile walk starts at midnight on June 6, from the car park on West Kirby Promenade and goes to the middle dip on New Brighton Promenade.

Fitness First will be coming to do a ‘warm up’ at 11.30pm and Esther McVey will start the walk at midnight and will continue with the masses until the end.

Breakfast will be cooked by the army, who will have a field kitchen set up at the end of the walk, for everyone taking part.

A day of spa treatments at Thornton Hall will be awarded to the person who raised the most sponsorship money.

Cherry Povall, programme action officer of Birkenhead Soroptimists, said: “This event is very important to a lot of people.”
