Welcome to our 2010 Carlisle Midnight Walk website. This is the third year of the walk and we have some exciting plans to make this year's event even better than before!   This year we are limited to 1500 walkers

Last year's event was simply an amazing experience and 1,500 ladies braved the elements and took to the streets of Carlisle to support the work of your Local Hospice. We are grateful to each and every walker that took part. About £150,000 was raised for the Hospice.

Our 2010 Carlisle walk will start on the stroke of midnight on Friday 25 June  and takes the form of a
6 mile (10K) sponsored walk round Carlisle to raise funds for the work of Eden Valley Hospice.

Walk for a Reason
Whether you want to walk to remember a loved one, get fit, have a great night out with friends or colleagues, meet new friends amongst the many women who'll be joining you, or just support the vital work of Eden Valley Hospice, we need you to sign up now!

 

Fancy Dress
Last year many of the ladies did the walk in fancy dress, nurses in nighties, ladies in leotards, incredible hulks, bees, pink ladies and even fairies. It all adds to the fun of the occasion and the spectacle of 1500 ladies walking the streets of Carlisle at midnight, some in strange apparel just makes the event so special.

 

 

 

Walk with Friends
Entry is only £10.00 per walker and every walker will receive a special Hospice Tee-Shirt, Glow stick and refreshments for the walk and a special certificate and medal for every lady who completes the walk.

 

Dog Friendly
Quite a few of our walkers last year brought their dog as a chaperone for the walk, we are happy to facilitate this again provided you keep your dog well under control and on a lead. (Don't forget to scoop that poop should nature call).

 

Sponsored Event
Our Midnight Walk is a chance for ladies to raise vital funds for the hospice through sponsorship and we ask each walker to raise as much as they can to support our care for people with terminal or life-limiting illnesses. As part of this sponsorship we ask that you pay £10 in advance sponsorship as a registration fee to take part and then the balance of your sponsorship as soon after the event as possibleUnlike last year we ask that you  DO NOT HAND IN ANY SPONSORSHIP MONEY ON THE NIGHT OF THE WALK. Just send us as much as you can as soon after the walk as possible.  As a thank you we will enter each lady who returns their sponsor money by 31 August into a free prize draw to win a fantastic prize. When you register we will send you a registration pack with all you need to get your fundraising
underway and on the night a freepost envelope you can use to send us your sponsorship.

Entertainment
We really appreciate the support each lady gives to this event, helping to raise important and very much needed funds for the hospice is very much appreciated and very welcome.

Therefore we are pleased to introduce new pre-walk entertainment for everyone taking part at our special pre-walk party. The party starts at 9.30pm on our special stage in the car park of Tesco's and will feature one of the countries top Take That tribute bands - Take That Now who will entertain you from about 10.15pm.

The 25 June is the first anniversary of the death of Michael Jackson and we plan to mark the occasion with a "Thriller" of a night and some intense "Moonwalking" as part of the warm up.

 

Your Registration Pack
Once you register to take part we will send you our special Midnight Walk registration pack, within this pack you will receive more details of the walk, a sponsorship form, some sponsorship hints and tips, your walk number, a training schedule for your walk and an exclusive Midnight Walk Tee-shirt that you can customise if you wish. (New Tee-Shirt design for 2010)
