We Walk for Yorkshire in your Workplace

We Walk for Yorkshire 2025

This May I'm joining people across Yorkshire who are coming together to raise money for vital research that will help save lives in Yorkshire and beyond. My plan is to walk an additional 7.3km per day for the 31 days of May, a total of 226km or 140 miles. This rather odd target reflects the fact that I reach the age of 73 towards the end of May! 

Every 17 minutes, someone in Yorkshire is told they have cancer. People are more likely to be diagnosed with cancer in Yorkshire than in most other parts of England and, tragically, too many people die.

This May, I would like to help change this, by taking part in We Walk for Yorkshire to raise money for Yorkshire Cancer Research. Thanks to supporters, the charity funds vital research and pioneers innovative new services for people with cancer. 

Every step counts and every pound I am able to raise will help save lives in Yorkshire.
