Giant Youth Against Cancer Run - 9 Sep 2011
Published on: 25th August 2011
In association with the Huddersfield Giants, The Laura Crane Youth Against Cancer Trust will be hosting their annual Youth Against Cancer Run.
Taking place on Friday 9th September from 3.30pm at Almondbury High School, the 1 mile run will be supported by Huddersfield Giants players and the club mascot Big G. Children and Young People of any age are encouraged to take part to raise funds by paying a £2 registration fee and raising sponsorship money.
Cancer is the most common form of non-accidental death in teenagers and young adults in the UK. The Laura Crane Trust is the only UK charity dedicated to funding research specifically into cancers affecting 13-24 year-olds, where cancer can strike in dangerous and difficult forms, often necessitating very harsh regimes of treatment in an effort to save their lives. The trust also funds various measures to improve the lives of these young cancer patients whilst they are undergoing treatment.
To take part in this event and to receive a complimentary ticket into the Huddersfield Giants and Leeds Rhinos game at 3pm on Sunday 11th September at the Galpharm Stadium please register by emailing fundraising@lauracranetrust.org or call 01484 510013
