On Friday 25th March, two years after the start of the pandemic, people from across Woughton and the rest of Milton Keynes will be walking to say ‘thank you’ to those who have worked so hard to keep us safe.
Throughout the pandemic, NHS staff, blue light responders and many others put themselves in harms way, risking their lives to help keep people safe. Working under immense pressure, the staff and their families have been there, all day, every day.
This event, organised by Woughton Community Council, gives people a chance to show their gratitude and their ongoing support for all that they do.
Starting at the new Hub on Ashland (housing the police, fire and ambulance services) and walking through to MK Hospital, people will have blue lanterns, glow sticks and lights, aiming to send a strong and loud message of support.
Starting outside the Blue Light Hub at 7pm, the walk of about 2 kilometres will finish at the hospital.
Due to the ongoing situation with Covid, final details will be agreed with the Hospital nearer the time.
