Saint Catherine’s has launched Sunrise Walk 2021 – here’s how to join the popular event
Last year, due to the pandemic, the format was changed from a large-scale group event to instead asking participants to take on their own walks during the month of September.
Many participants walked the original route around North and South Bays in Scarborough, enjoying a spectacular sunrise and sharing photos on social media of their efforts.

The Harbour Bar in Sandside, which has supported the event for over a decade, has kindly offered a free standard ice cream cone or soft drink to everyone taking part this year.
Participants simply need to show their confirmation email to Harbour Bar staff during September and mention the Sunrise Walk.
Susan Stephenson, communications and marketing manager, said: “The Sunrise Walk is a much-loved event in the hospice calendar and last year we were blown away by the amazing support.

“We are looking forward to seeing everyone’s photos and hearing about the special reasons why people are taking part.”
