Join Children’s Hospice South West at the Lost Gardens of Heligan for a special evening to remember your loved ones.

Participants are invited to walk in the calm and beauty of Heligan’s lit paths for an uplifting evening, raising vital funds for families supported by our 3 hospices, including Little Harbour.

The evening starts with a beautiful memory ceremony followed by a 4k walk in the lit paths of Heligan, with special points along the way to pause and remember by completing activities in your loved one’s memory.

During the ceremony, you will join together to light candles and listen to a special song dedicated to your loved ones. There will be readings and poems, all to celebrate the lives of those no longer with us, ending with 1 minute of applause followed by a 1 minute silence.

Throughout the evening, your loved one’s name and photo that you have added to our online dedication page will be projected on a screen.  To add your loved one’s name, please leave a dedication here: Moonlight Memory Walk Cornwall 2025

After a short safety briefing, we will begin the 4k Moonlight Memory Walk through Heligan’s peaceful, lit gardens where there will be 4 special spaces to pause and mark your loved one’s memory by completing a small activity in their memory. This will include leaving a message in our 2025 book of dedications which you can come and view at a later date at our hospice, Little Harbour.

We ask each person who takes part to pledge to raise £60 in memory of those they are walking for. This could contribute towards a supported hydrotherapy session helping to relax sore muscles.

There are just 400 places available to be a part of this uplifting evening, and due to its sensitive nature registration is only open to those aged 12 years or over.

Unfortunately, NO spectators and NO dogs are permitted.
