A WREXHAM hospice has announced the return of the Midnight Walk, its flagship fundraising event.

The event brings together hundreds of people from across the community, all there for different reasons, but united by one cause, to raise funds for patient care at Nightingale House Hospice.

This year the Midnight Walk will be celebrating its 15th year and organisers want everyone to celebrate in style.

The main walk will start when the clock strikes midnight on Saturday, June 24, from Llwyn Isaf (the Guildhall), Wrexham. Supporters will walk along a designated route around the town, lighting up the streets with glow merchandise.

This year, walkers can choose between a 10k or a 5k route, both of which will be manned by hospice volunteers, encouraging them along the way.

Those who register to take part will receive a Midnight Walk T-shirt and a reusable Nightingale water bottle. A hot drink and cereal bar will be available on completion of the walk.
