👟 Employee Wellbeing Walk

We’re inviting businesses and corporates to take part in The Global Cancer Hope Walk on Friday 11th September as a dedicated employee wellbeing day. It’s a wonderful opportunity to support colleagues and employees who are living with a cancer diagnosis, caring for someone with cancer, grieving a loved one, or who have been touched by cancer in any way. Whether your team walks together in person or takes part from different locations, this is a chance to prioritise connection, compassion, mental wellbeing, and hope. Let’s make Friday 11th September a meaningful workplace wellness day that shows no one has to face cancer alone.
