In Pictures: Rosemere Walk the Lights event was a ‘great family night out’

People gathered to walk the lights after the event was cancelled in 2020

Over 200 supporters of Rosemere Cancer Foundation gathered together to walk the Blackpool Illuminations.

Participants looked thrilled that the Walk the Lights event was back

They walked five miles of the world famous lights to raise £4,000 for the charity.

From the walk’s end point at Starr Gate they were directed to nearby Sharples Hall for free refreshments and a performance by local band The Inbetweeners.

Dan Hill, chief officer of Rosemere Cancer Foundation, said: “Huge thanks to everyone who took part. As always, what was our ninth Walk the Lights was a great family night out.

“It was back this year after being lost to Covid restrictions last year and the fantastic sum it raised will go towards projects benefitting cancer patients across our entire Lancashire and South Cumbria territory as the walk itself draws people in from across our entire patch.”
