Take a walk to fight cancer

Charity walk through the night is a great way to keep fit and raise funds

Posted: 9 August 2011

Shine Having fun on the 2010 Shine walk

Shine is into its second year, with Cancer Research UK asking you to walk a half- or full charity marathon overnight and raise money at the same time.

More than 3,500 people took part in Manchester's second Shine event back in April 2011. Now it's spreading to Glasgow and London too.

Glasgow's Shine takes place on September 10, 2011, with the London walk scheduled for October 1, 2011, starting and ending at the O2 Arena. Entry costs £30.

Visit the Shine website for more information, training help and fundraising ideas.
