Walk of Thoughts is a beautiful event and an opportunity for you to raise money through sponsorship. Together we walk to support and remember those affected by cancer.
Walk to remember your loved one. Some find this walk a time for reflection, a couple of hours dedicated to remembering moments with those they have loved and lost. Others use the walk to support a loved one currently fighting cancer, in the hope that every step brings us all closer to finding a way of stopping cancer pulling families apart for good. Many find the walk therapeutic and know that the money they are raising will go to help others in a similar situation.
This year, more than ever, sponsorship is so important to enable us to continue our work. Download your sponsor form here and get started straight away. Click here to go straight to the registration forms.
You will be given a paper leaf. At the end of the walk, you're invited to write your dedication to your loved one and place it on the Walk of Thoughts Tree. Last year, the dedication tree at the end of the walk was filled with such beautiful words, click here to read them.
In 2011, Walk of Thoughts took place at Fritton Lake. People walked 6 miles and together raised a spectacular amount, over £6,000!

This year we're also collecting any unwanted goods such as clothes, accessories, homeware (large furniture can be collected separately), bric-a-brac and toys in our Big C van. Time for a spring clean? Bring along your stuff and we'll take it to our shops to help raise even more money to help fight cancer in your local towns, villages and communities.
See you there!
