Action Cancer, Northern Ireland’s leading local cancer charity, is delighted to announce the launch of its Mothers’ Day Walk which will take place on Saturday 21st March at 10am. The 3K walk, proudly supported by Avondale Foods and Country Kitchen, takes place within the beautiful surrounds of Lurgan Park and takes in one full circuit of the park starting and finishing at the Jubilee Fountain (Windsor Ave entrance).

The walk is a sponsored event organised by the Lurgan Action Cancer Community Group and is open to anyone who would like to get together with family members ahead of Mothering Sunday. Registration is now open at a cost of £10 per adult (children under 16 are free).

The first 80 people to register will enjoy refreshments at Brownlow House after the walk – these places are strictly limited. The charity is asking participants to raise sponsorship which will fund Action Cancer’s range of therapeutic services which include counselling and complementary therapies available to families dealing with a cancer diagnosis. These are available from selected locations around Northern Ireland including Zion House in the town.

Judgement free zone. All information shared is completely at your discretion and is shared confidentially with the group. All attendees will be required to sign a confidentiality agreement at the start of each group, to ensure peace of mind for all participants.

Additionally, this is not a medical group so we are not here to diagnose, treat or recommend medical intervention, treatments or to give diagnoses as this is a peer-led support group. Katie, the meet-up co-ordinator has 10 years lived experience with Anxiety & Depression and is a trained mindfulness instructor, Growth Mindset coach and educator and as such will share from her own experiences. There is no expectation from anyone to stay for the full session if it becomes too overwhelming or you don't feel yourself and no questions will be asked if you wish to leave. There is no pressure and all participants will be made to feel welcome and safe.

You can even bring your own bottle if you wish to practice some wine-fulness!
