MORE than 300 walkers turned out for a three-hour cross bay walk in memory of the cockling victims and to raise cash for the rescuers.
The event last Sunday is expected to raise thousands for the RNLI.
Morecambe MP Geraldine Smith who collected about £700 said: "Out on the sands it is understandable how people can be lulled into a false sense of security because it feels serene and the views are perfect and then end up staying out there too long," she says. "We had a two minutes' silence near to where the cocklers drowned to remember those who lost their lives."
