Introduced by popular demand, the Prospect Hospice have launched a new charity event for children of all ages.

The Kids Starlight Walk, which is open to the whole family, follows the success of Prospect Hospice’s flagship Starlight Walk event, which sees hundreds of adults walking the streets of Swindon in their brightest and most colourful attire. 

The event takes place on Sunday 9 February 2020 and begins at 4pm, giving the fun feel of a night time walk without children staying up past their bedtimes. The event is open to children of all ages and one adult can accompany up to four children. 

“We’re really excited about this new event and we’re thrilled to have received lots of interest already,” said Amy Francombe, events and community manager at Prospect Hospice. “We receive lots of enquiries from supporters wishing to bring their children along, so we’ve launched a new event that’s suitable for all ages. 

“Our Starlight Walk event is always so popular and has been a brilliant fundraiser for the hospice. Over the years it’s raised over half a million pounds and we’re confident this new event will be a great success too, introducing our fundraisers of the future to the work of the hospice.” 

The event takes place on Sunday 9 February 2020 and begins at 4pm, giving the fun feel of a night time walk without children staying up past their bedtimes. The event is open to children of all ages and one adult can accompany up to four children.
