Mother’s Day 5K – Lurgan Park
2024-03-09 11:30 - 14:30 | Lurgan Park, Windsor Ave, Lurgan, Armagh, BT67 9BG, United Kingdom
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.”

Give the gift of time in 2024 – Volunteer at the Great Big Bucket Collection

The Great Big Bucket Collection 2024
2023-12-20 - 2024-02-04 | Northern Ireland, Northern Ireland
The Great Big Bucket Collection is back and we need your help!
Stand with Action Cancer on Saturday 3rd February for World Cancer Day.

We will be out with our buckets collecting the following towns and cities across the country:
Carrickfergus, Cookstown, Coleraine, Newtownards, Larne, Lisburn and Bangor.
We are looking for groups of volunteers local to these areas to help us shake our buckets and raise stacks of cash for Action Cancer’s local detection and support services.
Will you and any family, friends or work colleagues volunteer a couple of hours and help make this event a ‘Great Big’ success?
Action Cancer has been at the heart of cancer prevention, detection and support for people in Northern Ireland for 50 years. The services that Action Cancer provides are unique and free to the user but the charity does not receive regular government funding which is why ‘The Great Big Bucket Collection’ is hugely important way to raise vital funds.
To take part all you need to do is complete the registration form below and make sure you specify which of the 7 areas you would be able to collect in.
If you can’t volunteer on the day Action Cancer is also calling for shops and businesses to get involved by taking a bucket or collection tin to display in their store or workplace on the weeks leading up to the collection to help raise funds.
If you don’t live in any of the areas but would still like to contribute you can donate online https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/greatbigbucketcollection
If you would like more information on the Great Big Bucket Collection or on Action Cancer Services, please call 028 9080 3344 or email mirwin-watson@actioncancer.org

Discover Peru’s Lost City in 2023 – Action Cancer’s 50th year
The lost city of Machu Picchu is on many people’s bucket lists.

Treat yourself to the adventure of a lifetime
You’ll benefit from uncrowded access to one of the most spectacular and ancient trails in the world as you make your way to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Machu Picchu.
Experienced guides are with you each step of the way, providing helpful tips on how best to acclimatise to altitudes of 4,200m, as well as brilliant insights into traditional Peruvian culture.
You’ll discover that you’re stronger and more capable than you ever thought possible as you overcome the challenge of the undulating, rugged landscape.
You’ll revel in the unspeakable beauty of Mother Nature, far from the rushing buzz of civilisation you’ll discover authentic adventure and gain unforgettable memories.
This really is the trip of a lifetime.
The euphoria of stepping through the Sun Gate and claiming your first glimpse of Machu Picchu will live forever in your mind making all your fundraising and all your training efforts more than worth it.
Find your tribe and wander widely with Action Cancer
Action Cancer’s Inca Trail to Machu Picchu will take place in November 2023. The very same year in which we turn 50!
