Preston Park was once again adorned with all things magenta, including banners, balloons and even a tablecloth as people walked to raise awareness for diabetes and money for Diabetes UK.

Last year's Walk in the Park raised a tremendous £2500 for Diabetes UK, so whilst the Brighton group was proud of this achievement, we wanted to better this as much as possible. And soon, it became clear that this was indeed a possible task, with more walkers than before descending on the park, walking to raise money and awareness.

At the time this page is being published, we have ALREADY surpassed this figure, which is tremendous. This page, as well as the main Fundraising page will be updated with the grand total as and when we know it, so watch this space. In the meantime, please get your sponsorship in to Ian as soon as you can! Also, watch out for a gallery of photos from the event coming soon.

The group would like to thank everyone who came down to Preston Park on Sunday 15th June, at the tail-end of Diabetes Week and despite potential problems from the London-to-Brighton Bike Ride and gave it their all! See you next year.
