Moonlight walk to remember lost loved ones

People are set to take part in a Jersey walking event to remember loved ones they have lost.

Jersey Hospice Care has organised the Moonlight Walk with two circular routes - a 5km (3.1 miles) Half Moon Walk or a 10km (6.2 miles) Full Moon Walk - starting at St Brelade's Parish Hall at 21:00 BST.

Organisers said more than 300 people had signed up and they expected a few more to attend on the night.

Marina Brockbank, community engagement officer for Jersey Hospice Care, said the event could be "truly heart-warming".

Ms Brockbank said: "Whether you're walking to celebrate the lives of those no longer with us, make new memories, or perhaps a bit of both - it's about coming together as a community to show how much we value our hospice's work."

The charity said marshals and water stops would be positioned along the routes and entrants would get a cup of tea and some cake when they finish.

Entries cost £31.50 for a family of two adults and two children or £10.50 for people aged 16 or over and £5.25 for under 16s, who must be accompanied by an adult, the charity said.
