Mother’s Day 5K – Lurgan Park
Walk with her…Walk to remember her.
The Action Cancer Mother’s Day Walk is a fundraising event co-ordinated by the Lurgan Action Cancer Community Group. This 5K walk will take place within the beautiful surrounds of Lurgan Park on Saturday 9th March and is a both an uplifting and tranquil experience. This is also a dog friendly walk so we encourage you to bring all members of your family.
Registration: £10 per adult (children under 16 free)
PLEASE NOTE: Online registration will end at 5pm on 7th March. You can of course register on the day of the walk from 11.30 am
Courtesy of Country Kitchen there will be refreshments provided for walkers once the walk is completed.
The walk starts at 12pm but people can register on the day from 11.30am.
All monies raised will go towards helping Action Cancer continue to offer its many services some of which take place locally through visits from Big Bus visits to Lurgan and the surrounding area and the complementary therapy services for children and adults affected by cancer that take place in Zion House in the town.
Supporting the Walk once again is Caroline Pinion, mum, sister, daughter; “I wanted to be a part of the Mother’s Day Walk last year as it marked the 5th anniversary of my own mum’s passing and therefore is a particularly poignant time of the year for me. For people in a similar situation Mother’s Day can be a time of dread and sadness but I want it to be a time for remembrance, for celebrating the extraordinary person my mum was. My brother and aunt also took part so that made it a real family affair as we don’t always have the opportunity to get together as we all live in different places. Even just being in the park which was the backdrop to my childhood brought so many precious memories flooding back from being a pupil at King’s Park, trips to the pool or just family walks around the lake with our dog Cindy.”
