In the Glasgow and District Branch of Blood Cancer UK, we have been determined to do all we can to beat blood cancer. In the Branch we have raised an amazing £2.5 million for blood cancer research over the years, and we don’t intend to stop till blood cancer is beaten!
How can you help us?
Join us for our 15th Glasgow Walk to Beat Blood Cancer in Pollok County Park, this year on September 3, 2023, and help us fundraise to beat blood cancer.
How does it work?
The walk sets off at 11.30am outside the Burrell Collection, and you have the option of approximately 5km (one circuit) or 10km (two circuits) around this beautiful park.
Registration fee:
In advance - £12.50 (+50p admin charge) per person, under 12s go free.
On-the-day - at the venue, £15 per person, under 12s go free.
You will receive a t-shirt, included in the entry fee, to be collected at the venue on the day.
Sign up today!
Whether you walk to celebrate a life saved, or, to support a loved one, or in memory of someone who has died, or to highlight the work of Blood Cancer UK, or simply to spend time exploring a lovely park in great company, we would love to see you on 3rd September.
