WYCA Walkers - We Walk for Yorkshire 2026

This year marks our second time taking part in the We Walk for Yorkshire challenge, and we’re aiming for an even bigger turnout. Last year was incredibly inspiring, and we’re excited to build on that momentum.
This May, we’ll be joining people from across Yorkshire who are coming together to raise money for vital research that helps save lives right here in our communities. Every year, 35,000 people in Yorkshire are told they have cancer — a heartbreaking statistic that means our region faces higher cancer diagnosis rates than many other parts of England. Tragically, too many lives are lost.
By taking part in We Walk for Yorkshire, we want to help change this. Every step we take and every pound we raise supports Yorkshire Cancer Research, a charity that funds groundbreaking research and pioneers innovative services for people affected by cancer.
Every step truly counts — and together, we can make a difference for people across Yorkshire.
