Founded in June 2005 by Nina Barough CBE, Chief Executive of 'Walk the Walk' it has raised (as at February 2008) 4 million. Fashion stylist Nina entered the New York Marathon in 1996 wearing a decorated bra (the idea came to her in a dream) and that was the start of a full time campaign which sees the 'Walk the Walk' charity with 21 employees and organising the Playtex Moonwalk in London and the Sunwalk Daytime Challenge in Bristol & Newcastle. The 26.2 miles of a marathon is the equivalent distance that a sperm travels to fertilise an egg (4 inches).

Please note

Where tartans were recorded before the establishment of the Scottish Register of Tartans (SRT) on 5 February 2009, the original Scottish Tartans Authority (STA) and the Scottish Tartans World Register (STWR) reference numbers have been retained. The new SRT reference number can be found in the address box on your browser (url).

The registration criteria now applied by the Register conforms to the Scottish Register of Tartans Act 2008. These criteria are different to those previously applied by either the STA or the STWR. You may wish to refer to the STA website for further information on the original recording of this tartan.
