Together we remember. Together we create change.
We’re inviting our community to come together once again for Frankie & Neeve’s Remembrance Walk- a meaningful day of reflection, connection, and purpose.

Set against the stunning backdrop of the Saddleworth villages, the walk starts and finishes at Dovestones Reservoir, home to Frankie and Neeve’s memorial tree – a place that continues to bring people together in their memory.
