WALKERS will join forces to embark on a unique walk through Colchester for charity.

The Midnight Walk, in aid of St Helena Hospice, starts at 10.30pm tomorrow from Stanfords, The Livestock Market, in Wyncolls Road.

Anyone wishing to take part who has not already registered can do so from noon until 2pm, at the hospice fundraising office in Units 1 and 4, The Atrium, Phoenix Square, Wyncolls Road, Colchester.

There are a choice of three-and-a-half or seven-mile routes around Colchester.

The event is open to anyone over the age of 11 and is wheelchair-friendly.

The theme for this year’s walk, the tenth the charity has staged, is hats and hair-dos.

Participants who have already signed up can register from 8.30pm.
