Glow Walk Southsea: 23 of the best pictures as walkers light up the seafront for the Alzheimer's Society

HUNDREDS of people lit up the Southsea seafront last night for the city’s first Alzheimer’s Society’s Glow Walk to shine a light on dementia after dark.

People across the generations put their best foot forward as they walked along Southsea’s historic seafront dressed in neon and glitter to raise money for life-changing dementia support and research.

Around 400 people tackled the 5km route along the promenade kitted out in neon and glitter to raise money for life-changing dementia support and research.

Alzheimer’s Society manager for Hampshire, Linda Goddard, thanked all those who took part.

She said: ‘Every pound raised through Glow will help Alzheimer’s Society provide vital information and support, improve care, fund research and create lasting change for people affected by the condition.

‘I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has taken a step towards creating a brighter future for people with dementia and helped make this year’s Glow event such a brilliant success.’
