High profile celebrities are lacing up their walking boots and preparing to take part in Breast Cancer Care’s Pink Ribbonwalk sponsored by Santander in association with woman&home, at four different UK locations, in May and June 2011.
Each Pink Ribbonwalk event starts and finishes at beautiful and exclusive country manors. The 10 or 20 mile walking routes will take you through some of the most magnificent British countryside including access to private grounds usually closed to the public.
Kaye Adams, is gearing up for the 10 mile walk-a-thon at Scone Palace, Perthshire. Denise Van Outen will be hiking 20 miles at Petworth house, West Sussex. Jessica Fox (who plays Nancy Hayton in Hollyoaks) will lead the charge at the Cholmondeley Castle, Cheshire event, and Penny Lancaster-Stewart and Denise Lewis will walk at the Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire Pink Ribbonwalk.
With one person in the UK diagnosed with breast cancer every 10 minutes, sadly most of us will know someone affected by this cruel disease. Why not take part in a Pink Ribbonwalk and show your support for a loved one whilst enjoying a fun filled afternoon walking with friends and family, visit www.pinkribbonwalk.org.uk or call 0870 145 0101.
It costs just £30 to register and walkers are required to raise a minimum of £175 worth of sponsorship to help fund Breast Cancer Care’s vital support services. Put into context that could be a £10 donation from just 18 relatives, colleagues or friends.
Choose from 10 and 20 mile route options at the following locations:
Saturday 14 May 2011 – Scone Palace, Perthshire Pink Ribbonwalk
Saturday 21 May 2011 – Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire, Pink Ribbonwalk
Saturday 4 June 2011 – Cholmondeley Castle, Cheshire, Pink Ribbonwalk
Saturday 11 June 2011 – Petworth House, West Sussex Pink Ribbonwalk
Enjoy a village fete style celebration when you cross the finish line, including a medal, BBQ, message and entertainment!
Breast Cancer Care’s Ambassador Denise Lewis said:
“I loved walking the 10 mile route at Breast Cancer Care’s Pink Ribbonwalk last year. I took part in memory of my grandmother and it was a really special and uplifting day. Gather your friends, family and colleagues to sign up and make the 2011 events the biggest yet! Breast Cancer Care’s essential information and support services ensure that no one faces a breast cancer diagnosis alone.”
