With glitter, flashing headbands and twinkling fairy lights, the energetic walkers came together to remember loved ones and raise vital funds for the charity's hospice in Headingley.
Huge groups of friends and families set off from Prince Henry’s Grammar School on routes of 5k and 10k at around 5.30pm, with some walkers going until 11pm.
