A special evening to remember your loved one.   

Join us for an uplifting evening in the beautiful surroundings of Powderham Castle, while supporting local families with every step 

We invite you to join a brand-new event for our Devon children’s hospice, Little Bridge House, to remember your loved ones while walking a beautiful scenic route. Walk together with friends and family to remember those who are no longer with us. Lights will guide your way and there will be live music along the trail with spaces to pause and remember. 

Due to the sensitive nature of this event, registration is open to any person aged 12 years or over. Unfortunately, due to limited space at the venue, only participants will be permitted entry on the evening and NO dogs are permitted to attend. 

There are just 200 places available to be a part of this uplifting event.

Walk and fundraise in memory of your loved one 

By taking part in Moonlight Memory Walk and fundraising in memory of your loved one, you’ll be raising vital funds for families like Rhiannon’s 

Rhiannon and her family were supported by Little Bridge House at the end of Fred's lifeFamily photo at Little Bridge House

My son Fred passed away at 2 months old as, at birth, his brain was starved of oxygen, causing a significant brain injury and severe epilepsy. Little Bridge House provided hospice care for him, taking care of Fred during his end of life, and made a horrific situation as good as it could be. We are forever grateful for the memories we made, and the kindness shown to us.

Rhiannon, Fred’s mum 

Fundraising online
