Cancer is one of the most common causes of death in the United Kingdom, with over 360,000 new cases diagnosed each year. The disease can affect people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds, and can manifest in a variety of forms. Some of the most common types of cancer in the UK include breast cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, and bowel cancer. While cancer can be a devastating diagnosis, advances in research and treatment have led to improved outcomes and increased survival rates. Early detection and treatment remain crucial in the fight against cancer, and public awareness and support for research are critical in advancing the fight against this disease.
There are many organizations in the UK dedicated to supporting cancer patients and funding research. Among them is the Clatterbridge Cancer Charity, which is leading the way in cancer care and research.
As part of their fundraising efforts, the Clatterbridge Cancer Charity is hosting the Glow Green Night Walk Liverpool, a charity event that encourages participants to walk through the city while dressed in glowing green. This exciting event not only raises funds for cancer research, but also provides a platform for raising awareness about the disease and celebrating the strength and resilience of cancer patients and survivors.
It’s time to Glow Green!
Friday 2nd February 2024 will see Liverpool coming together to mark World Cancer Day for Clatterbridge Cancer Charity.
A fabulous show will kick off the walk which starts at the Museum of Liverpool, and with fantastic entertainment along the route, this is your chance to paint the town green!
Some of the most iconic landmarks in Liverpool will be lighting the 8km route, including the Three Graces, the Radio City Tower and St Georges Hall; and thanks to our sponsors Regatta Great Outdoors, Roofcare, and Laing O’Rourke, it’s set to be an evening to remember.
There will also be the chance during Glow Green to pause and reflect, as hundreds of lanterns will light up the steps of the Metropolitan Cathedral, you can order your lantern when you register, and personalise it before the big night.
With lots of Green Glow Merchandise available to purchase at the event, and a FREE Glow Green t-shirt for you to wear, Glow Green is something you won’t want to miss.
