Families united by grief came together in north Norfolk to remember loved ones and share their experiences at a poignant memorial walk.

The event was the first of its kind organised by bereavement charity Nelson’s Journey, which supports children and young people across the county dealing with the death of a significant person.

More than 130 people took part in the 1.8 mile walk round Blickling Park yesterday, with many wearing specially printed t-shirts paying tribute to the loved one they had lost.

Organiser Sophie Berry, funding officer with Nelson’s Journey, said the charity had long wanted to host a memorial walk to help bring youngsters and adults together.
