We Walk for Yorkshire 2026
We're taking part in We Walk for Yorkshire, the annual walking challenge organised by Yorkshire Cancer Research. We’ll be joining others across Yorkshire and beyond, to collectively walk 35,000 miles in May to help fund life-saving cancer research.
Why 35,000? That’s the number of people who are told they have cancer in Yorkshire every year. By walking in May, we're helping save lives in our region.
By supporting our fundraising, you’ll be directly contributing to vital research and pioneering new services that will benefit people with cancer in Yorkshire now, and in the future.
Thank you for anything you’re able to donate. It will make a real difference.
