The group also includes MU member Lorraine Watt from Ballymena and Diocesan President Moira Thom from Lisburn.

This year’s event, starting at the City Hall as usual, takes place on the May Day Bank Holiday, Monday May 5.

Money raised by the MU members will be donated to the MU Relief Fund and will be used specifically for emergencies and disasters such as war, famine and flood. Bishop Alan, Liz and Robin will be raising funds for Connor's Yei project.

Anyone wanting to sponsor the walkers is asked to email Kathleen at rodgersdkp@dnet.co.uk.
