WHEN one of Plymouth’s best-loved charity events returns this year, it is taking participants back to the past to raise vital funds that will help local families for generations to come.
The clocks will be turned back to the 1980s for the Midnight Walk for St Luke’s – as the hospice marks its 40th anniversary.
The walk takes place on Friday, July 22, when it is set to be awash with women embracing the theme of 1982, which is when the hospice – then based at Syrena House in Plymstock – welcomed its first patients.
But that’s not all. As well as the retro theme to mark four decades of compassionate care and support for families across Plymouth and surrounding areas, this year – for the first time – the charity has added a 2.5-mile route to the event.
