The annual walkathon charity event has been taking place since 1998 and has raised tens of thousands of pounds for local good causes. Each year walkers raise money for local charities. Entrants can choose to raise funds for their chosen charity or help raise funds for the events charities such as Cornerstone Community Care, The Lord Provost's Charitable Trust, The Royal National Lifeboat Institute (RNLI) and Northsound Radio Cash For Kids. The fun walk traditionally takes place on a Sunday and contributes to the health and wellbeing of thousands of participants and opens up parts of Aberdeen that thousands have never visited.

Information about the 2008 Walkathon Aberdeen will be added soon.
