SIR – As a local Marie Curie Nurse, I am inviting local walkers to make the most of the great British summer evenings by taking part in a fabulous evening of sunset strolling, picnicking and entertainment, taking place at Bolton Abbey, near Skipton, on Sunday, August 29, 2010.
Walk Ten: Bolton Abbey, is one of a series of unique twilight 10k walks, taking place at stunning locations around the UK this summer – many of which are usually closed to the public during the evenings.
Walk Ten: Bolton Abbey, is supported by HomeServe, and will help to fund more nursing care for terminally-ill patients.
The walk aims to attract around 500 people to this magical evening, which will begin at 6pm with a 10k walk around the beautiful estate.
Afterwards, there will be time to settle down with a picnic and enjoy the entertainment, before gathering at 10pm to celebrate the Marie Curie Nurses all around the UK who are beginning their overnight shifts in patient’s homes.
For more information about your nearest Walk Ten, go to mariecurie.org.uk/walkten or call 08700 340040.
Joanna Bond, Marie Curie Nurse
