Edinburgh Moonwalk - 19 June 2010


A huge thank you to our fantastic volunteers who gave up their Saturday night and a lie-in on a Sunday to help staff the water station for Maggie's at the Edinburgh Moonwalk.

Our volunteers did a wonderful job and kept the walkers well watered, with a smile on their face, at both the 4 and 24 mile markers. It was an amazing experience to see all these women (and men) pounding the streets of Edinburgh in their bras.

And there are many other ways you can help. We've listed a few below:
