Amongst the multi-generational group, mum and daughter Sarah and Hannah Rigby walked to raise more than £1,000 for Baby Beat.
Their contribution helped to support the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Royal Preston Hospital’s Maternity Unit, where Hannah’s daughter Sarah spent time, in July 2023.
Dan Hill, chief officer of Rosemere Cancer Foundation and head of charities for Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, who also did the walk, said: “Thank you to everyone who turned out to join us on what was an especially breezy Cross Bay interrupted by some very sharp showers.
“It was definitely a wet and wild one but thankfully, the general consensus was that it was still a lot of fun.”
