The LOROS Twilight Walk has been postponed because of bad weather.

One of the charity’s biggest annual fundraisers, it was due to start from the King Power Stadium tomorrow and involve a 10km walk through the city centre.

It has been rescheduled for Saturday, April 13.

Spokeswoman for LOROS Diane Morris said: “It has been rescheduled because of the weather. It is just too dangerous, and I think the snow will make it just too slippy and too cold.

“The arrangements will stay the same for the rescheduled walk.”

Last year the walk generated more than £50,000 for LOROS, which is based in Groby Road, supports about 2,500 patients and their families each year.
