Caroline Walked All Over Cancer – Incredible Achievement!
Published: 03/04/2025
Throughout March, our Registered Manager, Caroline, took on the Walk All Over Cancer challenge, organised by Cancer Research UK. She committed to walking 10,000 steps every day to raise funds for life-saving cancer research – and we are thrilled to celebrate her success!
Why Walk All Over Cancer?
Cancer affects nearly 1 in 2 people in their lifetime, and research is key to improving treatment, early detection, and survival rates. By taking on this challenge, Caroline not only raised funds but also inspired our team to stay active while making a real difference.
Caroline knew this would be no easy task, especially with her busy schedule, but she remained committed, saying:
“Please help me by reminding me to get up from my desk and walk around if you speak to me during the month!”
And we did just that! Our team cheered her on, and some even joined her for walks during lunch breaks to help her reach her goal.
Stepping Up for Cancer Research
To hit 10,000 steps every day, Caroline found creative ways to keep moving. Whether it was walking around the office during meetings, pacing between tasks, or taking extra steps outside, she was determined to complete the challenge.
She even encouraged others to join in, inviting the team to walk with her in the car park at lunchtime. Seeing her dedication inspired many of us to get moving too – a true example of leading by example!
How Your Support Makes a Difference
Beyond the challenge itself, every step Caroline took helped raise funds for vital cancer research. Here’s how donations from this campaign contribute to real breakthroughs:
- £25 – Provides essential lab equipment like test tubes, gloves, and beakers for experiments.
- £50 – Helps scientists study cancer-causing genes with special DNA-cutting chemicals.
- £100 – Funds a cancer biopsy, a crucial step in early diagnosis and treatment.
Every donation helped Cancer Research UK continue its mission to save lives. If you donated – thank you! Your support is making a real impact.
Mission Accomplished: The Final Results!
We are beyond proud to announce that Caroline successfully completed the challenge, walking an impressive 316000+ steps, equivalent to 173 miles over the month and raising £150 for Cancer Research UK!
This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without the encouragement and generosity of colleagues, friends, and supporters. Every step counted, and every donation brought us closer to a world where cancer can be beaten.
