18 Feb 2022

LOROS Hospice is pleased to announce that their annual Twilight Walk is returning with a Royal Parade theme, in line with the nation’s celebrations for the Platinum Jubilee of Elizabeth II.

As the local charity’s flagship fundraising event, participants can join LOROS on the 10km walk across the city on Saturday 28th May 2022. The event will start and finish at King Power Stadium, with the route featuring entertainment, food stalls and more.

In keeping with the Royal Parade theme, walkers are encouraged to dress up in their finery; from Kings and Queens to fairy-tale inspired Prince and Princesses, Knights and Jesters.

Now in its twelfth year, the Twilight Walk brings walkers together in solidarity to raise money for their local Hospice and to remember loved ones. 

Last year, Twilight Walkers collectively walked over 53,000 miles and made each step count by raising almost £50,000 for the local charity.

Lisa Wilson, Events Co-ordinator at LOROS Hospice says; “We are thrilled to present our Royal Parade Twilight Walk in a year where Queen Elizabeth II has made history.

“The Twilight Walk continues to be Leicester’s biggest night out and we hope that this year will see even more supporters joining the fun in fancy dress to raise funds for LOROS.”

“It’s such a high-energy, feel-good evening which really brings people together. With this theme, participants can really use their imagination for their royal-inspired outfits!”

Early-bird tickets for the event, which is being sponsored by Dunelm, can be bought at the price of just £10 each for a limited time only.
