Story
Pilgrimage is an event that follows the River Irwell from its source near Rawtenstall, back into the City of Salford, a distance of around 27 miles.
The walk not only raises money for charity, but also allows time for contemplation and making new friends along the way.
This is the second year of what is to become an annual event.
Not Quite Light is an award winning festival based in Salford, exploring the places in which we exist, using the half light of dawn and dusk as inspiration.
Last year was the first year of the 'Pilgrimage' event, and £1500 was raised for the Booth Centre. As well as bringing money and awareness to the charity, the walk also offers the opportunity to consider our relationship to the city and surrounding countryside.
