ON behalf of the Starlight team at St Rocco's Hospice, I would like to say a huge thank you to the 180 wonderful volunteer marshals that made the Starlight Walk safe, possible and fun.
Many of the walkers mentioned how safe they felt along the route and were really appreciative of the encouragement given to them as they passed by.
It was no mean feat to walk 13 miles in the middle of the night but equally to stand in one position for three to five hours was amazing.
Thank you so much for giving up your sleep to make a difference to St Rocco's Hospice. You are the real unsung heroes of the night.
