WALKERS have raised £20,000 for a hospice charity.

More than 400 people took part in a sponsored walk along the Green Chain Walk and Thames Path.

All the money raised is going to the Greenwich and Bexley Cottage Hospice charity.

Every person that took part in the walk was awarded a medal at the finish line.

The charity’s fundraising manager Howard King said: “The money raised will help to provide specialist care and support to over 1,300 people with life-limiting illnesses a year, as well as their families and carers."
