A special event called the 'Forget Me Not Skate' was organized in London by the group Wheels and Wheelchairs along with the bereavement charity Grief Encounter. The event aimed to honor and remember loved ones who have passed away. Participants, including wheelchair users and skaters, skated a total of 10 miles from Battersea Park to The Strand and back.
The idea for the skate was inspired by a similar event called the 'Forget-Me-Not Walk' organized by Grief Encounter during the Covid pandemic. The president of Wheels and Wheelchairs, who is a wheelchair user, highlighted that the event was a way to skate in memory of someone special.
