Demelza and Amelia's Venus Walk for Jayne. Mum. Grandma 2025

Demelza Richards is raising money for St Michael's Hospice (Hereford)

Venus 2025 · 11 July 2025 ·

With three walking routes to choose from 5, 10 or 15km there is something for everyone. All routes start and finish at Herefords Leisure centre where hundreds of female walkers over the age of 12 will take to the streets of Hereford.

Story

Amelia and I decided last year that we would complete this walk in Memory of Mum, just over a year later we are sticking to it.... although to be honest I probably would not have chosen the 15k if it wasn't for Amelia!

Please please sponsor what you can its such an amazing charity, as I have said many times we can not thank the Hospice staff enough for the care they gave Mum both at home and at the Hospice. They supported us as a family and they continue to offer support a year on.

Mum was a strong woman and we are proud to be able to join this walk with so many other strong women, and although its mostly pink we will have a splash of yellow!

Here's what its all about...

The Venus Midnight walk is one of St Michael's Hospice most-popular events! In 2025 it returns for its 17th year! Venus is a female walk around Hereford adorned in pink. The brighter you are the better, as we aim to light up the streets of Hereford with our sea of pink-ladies walking together in remembrance or just for fun!

But wait, there’s more! Before the walk begins, deck yourself out in pink with our fabulous merchandise and face glitter, and grab a refreshing drink to get in the mood. Don’t forget to visit the memory garden station, a poignant touch added to all three routes. With music and a vibrant summer evening atmosphere, it’s an experience you won’t want to miss!
