Welcome to the Womens Cancer Challenge website

Lews Castle College at 12.00

Thank you so much for making this years event such a success - even the weather was kind! The fourth running of the Womens Cancer Challenge featured individuals and groups from right across the islands - and even one North American entrant! The final entry tally was 547 which is just amazing - thank you!

 

We hope to have the photo gallery available shortly - please check back. Usual rules apply - any photos that appear can be removed but only if an appropriate donation is made to the Lewis branch of Cancer Reseach UK!!

 

There are plans at an early stage to hold a Lunar Walk in late August - again, check back for more details when they become available.

 

 Thanks to the generosity of so many local businesses and individuals, the event has cost absolutely nothing to put on over the last four years - so every single penny raised goes to the local fundraising target.

.

As an anonymous person – you will soon see why anonymity is probably necessary – said at the event last year “How on earth did you get 500 women in Lewis together at the same time for something that did not include shopping drinking or dancing!”

  

The Womens Cancer Challenge is now the biggest sporting participation event in the Western Isles and every individual who runs, jogs or walks is part of it.
