People braved the wet weather to take on one of two walks – a pleasant 5km (3.1 mile) stroll or a shorter accessible route (approximately 20 mins) suitable for all abilities, including wheelchair users.
There was also a fun orienteering challenge for children and “forget-me-not” face-painting, plus branded Alzheimer’s Society clothing and accessories to buy.
It was the second memory walk to take place this year, following a Pennington Flash event.
