Light the Night this October for Weston Park Cancer Charity!

14th September 2016

Calling all families, friends and colleagues! Weston Park Cancer Charity needs you to join their annual sponsored walk and help improve the lives of over 18,000 people fighting cancer across our region.

Experience the thrill of walking through the ancient woodlands of Ecclesall Woods at sundown over a gentle 4.5km route, with live entertainment and surprises along the way! With a brand new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory fancy dress theme, this year's walk will be fun for all the family as the charity take you on a 'choctastic' adventure through this scenic woodland. As part of a 'Golden Ticket' incentive, the fundraiser who raises the most sponsorship before the event will be given 2 tickets to see the sell-out Charlie & the Chocolate Factory show in London. Money raised at Light the Night will help fund various projects to enable the continued improvement of Weston Park Hospital; including the expansion of research studies, improving the way cancer treatments are delivered and supporting the ongoing care provisions of patients and their families affected by cancer. Weston Park Hospital is one of only a handful of specialist cancer hospitals in England and treats patients from all over South Yorkshire, North Nottinghamshire and North Derbyshire a population of almost 1.8million people. Weston Park Cancer Charity is the only dedicated charity for the hospital and exists to support the world-class cancer research and to improve the treatment and care for people living with cancer. Sign up to Light the Night today and help keep more families in our region together for longer www.lightthenight.org.uk
