Baring all for charity

The SunWalk Bristol will see thousands of walkers, many baring their bras, taking to the city’s streets in a move to get fit and healthy whilst raising money for breast cancer causes.

The charity power walking challenge takes place on Sunday, 6 July, starting and ending at Ashton Court.

Famous for the elaborately decorated bras worn by both men and women who participate, the city will be filled with colour as people take part in the 5 km, 10 km or half marathon power walks.

Nina Barough, founder and chief executive of charity Walk the Walk which organises The SunWalk and the famous MoonWalks in London and Edinburgh said: "The SunWalk Bristol just keeps getting bigger and better each year, which is completely down to the fantastic support we receive from walkers in the city, the South West and across the country."

"There is no doubt that The SunWalk Bristol not only spreads a little sunshine into all those that take part but as well as getting fit and having fun, all our walkers also make an invaluable contribution to raising awareness and money for vital breast cancer causes."

There will be a host of activities taking place in The SunWalk Village at Ashton Court on Sunday, 6 July, from music, entertainment and stilt walkers to product sampling, massages, face painting and much more.

Walk the Walk is encouraging people to come along, support the walkers and enjoy a great day out with friends and family.
