A FUNDRAISING event for a carers service will be taking place for the second year running.

Walk a Mile in a Carers Shoes will be held in Witton Park in Blackburn in May.

The series of three walks will raise funds for unpaid carers at Blackburn with Darwen Carers Service.

The red walk is one mile and flat for those who use walking aids, wheelchairs or who just want an easier walk.

The yellow route is for those who wish to have a more scenic exercise and is approximately one and a half miles.

Finally the green walk will be a bit more challenging measuring four and a half miles.

All dogs are welcome but must be on a lead and children can take part but must be supervised.

There will be a treasure hunt on all three walks and a competition for the best dressed dog.

For businesses there is an opportunity to rent a gazebo for £25 for the day.

The event will take place on Saturday, May 20, and registration is at 10am at the pavilion.
