Let's walk for a Yorkshire free from cancer

Every 17 minutes, someone in Yorkshire is told they have cancer. This May, you can help change this, simply by going for a walk.

We Walk for Yorkshire is a walking challenge for anyone who wants to keep active and help save lives in Yorkshire.  

Whether you walk solo or with friends, you'll be funding time spent on research to bring more cancer cures to people in the region. 

Together, we could raise £100,000! Are you ready to walk for Yorkshire?

I'm walking for my wellbeing...
