How your support makes a difference
Fund the research that matters to you
When you sign up to Shine Night Walk you can pick which research area you want to support, from bowel cancer to children’s cancers or simply where the need is greatest.
Over the last 40 years our work has helped double breast cancer survival, supported the development of radiotherapy and played a role in developing 8 of the world’s top 10 cancer drugs.
Nearly 1 in 2 of us will get cancer in our lifetime*, but your fundraising can make a difference.
How fundraising helps Leeds
Many of our researchers in the region are based at the University of Leeds, where their work focuses on a range of cancer types including bowel, blood and skin cancers. They also have expertise in the fields of immunotherapy and radiotherapy.
Cancer Research UK spent over £3 million in Leeds in 2022/23
Research happening right now in Leeds includes:
- We’re developing new treatments to fight liver cancer.
- We’re personalising treatment for patients with anal cancer.
- We’re improving treatment for people with blood cancer.
- We’re making radiotherapy more effective.
- We’re uncovering the biology of blood cancers to find new treatments.
We're with you every step of the way
Fundraising support
We’re here to help you kickstart your fundraising and smash your target. We recommend a fundraising goal of £150 for 10K walkers and £260 for half and full marathon walkers, but no matter how much you raise, your fundraising powers our progress.
Training support
Shine Night Walk isn’t about being the first across the finish line, but it’s important to be prepared. Whether you’re planning to power walk, stride or stroll, find out how long each distance will take and get your training plan.
Community support
Shine Night Walk is about all of us coming together to beat cancer. But you don’t need to wait until the walk! After signing up you’ll receive a link to join the official Shine Night Walk Facebook group, where you can share support, fundraising ideas and training tips with your fellow walkers.
