Walks in memory of police community support officer Julia James have taken place in the UK and abroad.
Ms James, 53, was found dead next to Akholt Wood, in Snowdown, Kent, after taking her dog for a walk on 27 April.
Her cousin Sam Griffin, who helped to organise the events, said more than 140 walks were taking place.
About 100 walkers and their dogs gathered near Ms James s home in Aylesham.
The first walks took place in Australia, according to another organiser, Sally-Anne Bedford.
