Lanarkshire-based charity's Walk of Hope will once again travel through darkness into the light

Chris’s House is looking forward to the return of its highly-anticipated signature event next weekend.

The Lanarkshire-based charity's Walk of Hope is back for the first time since 2019 and those taking part will tread a familiar route, setting off from the Glasgow Science Centre for the first time in three years.

Participants, the vast majority of whom have lost a family member or friend to suicide, will gather in the darkness at 4.45am on the morning of next Saturday, May 7 before making their way along the Clydeside on a 5km circular route crossing the squinty bridge where walkers will throw flowers into the river, before finishing back where it started as dawn breaks, signifying the psychological shift from darkness into light.
