THE Bolton News was right to describe the recent Midnight Memories Walk as magic.

This is a fantastic event which has gone from strength to strength in recent years. It is amazing that over 1,500 people took part in this years walk, helping to raise much needed funds for Bolton Hospice.

At a time when there has been a great deal of concern about animosity and division in society it is great to see what people can achieve through working together for something of positive benefit for our town. It's a massive well done from me to everyone involved.
