Walkers setting off on Saturday.
More than 300 people took part in the third annual Twilight Walk in Dundee at the weekend.
The participants, all dressed in Breast Foot Forward T-shirts, braved the blustery wind on the walk to raise cash for the charity.
Over the past three years, Breast Foot Forward has provided funding for the research and development of a rehabilitative physical activity programme after breast cancer surgery.
This programme has been developed by Dundee University and staff from its Institute of Sports and Exercise (ISE).
Trustee Liz Milligan said: “This work is being closely monitored and evaluated and because of this we know that it is making an immediate contribution to the community and that it is likely to provide a unique framework of care for Dundee and the surrounding area.
“In 2013 alone, the Twilight Walk walkers helped raise the £25,000 which was given last year by the charity to this comprehensive project in Dundee.
“Needless to say, the walkers are hoping to increase the amount of sponsorship they raise this year.”
