Shimmer Walk
Walk, Remember. Shine Together Following the incredible success of last year's event, which raised a remarkable £30,000 for our care, we're thrilled to announce that Shimmer Walk is returning in 2026. And we want you to be part of it. This family-friendly 5k sponsored walk not only brings together friends, colleagues, and families of those who have experienced our dedicated and compassionate care but those who wish to take part in a local community event. Walk together to celebrate the lives of those we've cared for and create lasting memories under the stars while raising vital funds for our care. Starting from Charlton School, Wellington, you'll make your way through the enchanting Apley Woods, where magical fun zones await to light up your evening. The route takes in our hospice at Apley, where you'll have the opportunity to light a candle in memory of your loved one, and place it in our hospice gardens. Entry includes all the fun zones, a lantern to light in the hospice gardens, an exclusive shimmer walk t-shirt and participatory medal. Be part of something special. Walk with us, honour your loved ones, and help us continue providing compassionate, dedicated care to our community. All funds raised support the vital care we provide to patients and families in our community.
