Organiser Becky Saunders told Burnham-On-Sea.com she had been “delighted” with the turnout and thanked all those who has supported the event, which is expected to have raised several hundreds of pounds for the Peter Gilliard Memorial School in India.

“The inspiration for the name of the event – the Smile Walk – was a wonderful photo of a smiling Indian schoolgirl which really struck a chord with us.”
