00:00Crowd Cheering
00:18I want to thank, take the opportunity to thank all of you because without all of you
00:39we couldn't raise anything and do any of the wonderful things we do. So a big cheer for
00:44all of you. Come on. And I also want to give a big cheer to all our volunteers who certainly
00:52could do nothing without them. So a big cheer for them as well.
00:58We've done many Edinburgh moonwalks including over the moon which was, you did it twice
01:06so you finished and then you did it again.
01:08This is our first one back for a while since Covid got in the way.
01:14We just had a reunion with Nina and Sam which is lovely because we've been on
01:18many adventures with Nina. So that was really good but yeah it used to always just be like
01:25an incomplete reunion.
01:27You know there's some people that have been really big supporters almost since we started.
01:32We have, there's a few ladies who have done every single moonwalk you know like 26 of them
01:38and it's amazing and you know people, we don't call it the Walk the Walk family but our supporters
01:45call it the Walk the Walk family because they feel like they are part of a family and yeah
01:52and I do too. It's really lovely you know you come to an occasion like this and you see familiar
01:57people that maybe walked one year and then they're volunteering the next year and then
02:02they come back to walk. So it's really special, it is really special.
02:06Edinburgh is really supportive of the moonwalk, it's always been really supportive.
02:11It's a special one isn't it but it's nice to be back, back into our little family.
02:18People are all here for different reasons I mean it might just be because they love
02:22the idea of walking around Edinburgh in a bra you know. Some people have got family and friends
02:28that are going through breast cancer and for others you know they probably were in the pub
02:35and their friends signed them up and they didn't know what they were, another people were doing.
02:39Everyone has a, but everyone has a story to tell and I think no matter what brings people here
02:45I think they arrive and they're almost quite surprised at just how everybody is together.
02:53You know we always say you're never on your own if you do a moonwalk, it's you, you're part of a,
02:59you're part of the whole thing you know everybody's here together and it's just a lovely community.
