On Saturday the 28th of June, Hampshire Caledonian Pipe Band led the start of the annual Walk the Island. This year, over 100 participants embarked on the 14-mile trek around Portsea Island to money for the chosen charity for 2025, The Roberts Centre. The Roberts Centre is an organisation dedicated to improving the lives of families and individuals facing homelessness, abuse or other challenges.
Hampshire Caledonian had the honour of leading the participants from the Queens Hotel, across Southsea Common and down Palmerston Road. The band then met back up with the participants as they passed through Guildhall Square, taking part in a short service at the war memorial, where participants laid wreaths.
