Charity Manager Judith Read said: “We can’t wait to see as many of our supporters as possible join us for this popular, memorable and historic event.
“Walking across Morecambe Bay is a unique experience and a great family day out as well as a fantastic way to raise funds for our local hospitals.”
Crossing the sands was traditionally a major transportation route, despite the hazards of rising tides and shifting sands. The first official guide to the sands was appointed by the Duchy of Lancaster in 1548, and the role has existed ever since.
