People are also invited to attend as Dementia Friends to learn how to become more understanding and supportive of those who have the condition.

There will be stalls offering light refreshments and information about services in the borough, and all who attend will be given a copy of the South Ribble Partnership’s Living Well Guide to take away. It offers both advice and details of services and social events in the area.

This circular route is suitable for all - with frequent benches for resting throughout.

The event is sponsored by Birchall Blackburn Law.
