Registration for this weekend’s Solas Cancer Support Centre Run and Walk for Life has surpassed 3,000!

This year’s event is shaping up to the biggest ever, with events once again taking place in both Waterford City and Dungarvan.

The 10K Run and Walk in Dungarvan starts at 10am at Walton Park on Saturday 11th while the 10k Run and Walk starts on Sunday 12th at 10am on the Quay in Waterford City.

The popular 4K walk will also be available this year to both Waterford and Dungarvan, encouraging families to take part in tandem with the 10K routes.

A virtual option is also available and workplaces are being encouraged to once again #GoOrangeForSolas.

The Solas Cancer Support Centre is this year shining a light on male engagement with cancer support services. This focus includes the introduction of blue t-shirts to spark a conversation on male engagement.

Efforts are underway to increase service use among men of all ages – and you can hear a special WLR report on this here
