Participants in last year's Wirral Coastal Walk
THE Muscular Dystrophy Campaign is urging people planning to take part in Wirral Coastal Walk to help raise funds for the charity.
Organised by the Rotary Club of North Wirral, the event takes place on Sunday, May 19.
Charles Horton, volunteer fundraising manager for the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign, said: "We really do need as many people as possible to help us by taking part in the Wirral Coastal Walk to raise sponsorship.
"The charity helps over fifteen hundred families and individuals in the North West who are affected by muscle wasting conditions.
"By taking part you could help us to fund research into treatments and improve the lives of people affected by muscle disease”.
The walk starts at Seacombe Ferry Terminal, finishes fifteen miles later at Thurstaston Country Park. Participants can opt to finish at five or 10 miles if they cannot complete the whole course.
All walkers who take part for the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign will receive a t-shirt to wear on the day to show their support and a certificate of thanks after the event.
If you are interested in taking part to raise funds for the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign email northwest@muscular-dystrophy.org or call 01244 536551 for an entry form and sponsorship pack.
