May marks the start of a month-long campaign and it is a great way to raise money for the British Heart Foundation, but it also gives us a chance to look back on the times we joined in with sponsored walks of all kinds.
Were you pictured walking to raise money for a new mini bus in Hebburn or striding out in fancy dress at Fellgate Primary School?
We have all this and more as we turn back the clock.
