This year is the 20th anniversary of Breast Cancer Now’s Pink Ribbon Walks and people can now sign up to walk 10 or 20 miles.
Breast Cancer Now Ambassador, Donna Fraser OBE OLY, is encouraging people to join her in signing up to walk and raise funds for the essential cause.
From April to June, the Pink Ribbon Walks take place across four beautiful locations. Hampton Court Palace on Saturday 26 April, Blenheim Palace on Saturday 10 May, Crieff Hydro in Scotland on Saturday 31 May and Chatsworth House on Saturday 21 June.
Whichever walk you join, you will soak up beautiful UK countryside and will carry a pink ribbon with your own message of hope as you walk, which you can then add to an incredible display of pink ribbons as you receive your medal at the finish line.
Donna said: “As an Olympian, I am always on the hunt for a new a physical challenge. I am also a proud ambassador of Breast Cancer Now, so when I learned their Pink Ribbon Walk series was celebrating its 20th anniversary, taking on the 20-mile walk felt like the perfect way to mark this milestone.
“I would like to encourage your readers to lace up their walking boots and join me in signing up to a walk to raise vital funds for Breast Cancer Now.
“Having received a diagnosis of breast cancer myself at the age of 36, Breast Cancer Now is very close to my heart. I know first-hand how devastating a diagnosis is, and how Breast Cancer Now’s research and support gives hope to all those affected.
“I will be walking at the Blenheim Palace Pink Ribbon Walk alongside people who have been impacted by the disease whilst raising funds so that this important charity can continue to be there for the 55,000 women diagnosed with breast cancer each year in the UK.”
