This year marks the 40th year of the campaign, and whilst Covid-19 restrictions means that people are unable to come together to mark the special occasion, NI Hospice is encouraging supporters to put their best foot forward and have their own Hospice Walk this Sunday, April 18, or a day that suits.
The fundraising effort has been well supported across east Antrim and Newtownabbey over the past, with walkers supporting the care of people with life-limiting illnesses and their families.
We take a look back at some of the Northern Ireland Hospice walks in east Antrim over the past decade – can you spot any familiar faces?
