ONE OF Stroud's most-loved events took place on Sunday.
The yearly Five Valleys Walk for Meningitis Now takes place on Sunday, September 29 with the money raised helping those impacted by the disease and to raise awareness.
The Five Valleys Walk offered those who took part a great day of walking, entertainment and local food.
Those taking part could choose how far they wanted to walk across the eight checkpoints, from 1.5 miles to the full 21-mile route.
The charity also organised for local businesses to join it along the route, providing snacks and drinks, and the Meningitis Now team were ready to welcome walkers at Stroud Cricket Club with live music and hot food.
