Search for local bride to start Race for Life

16:27, 04 April 2006

HAVE you tied the knot or are you planning on getting married this year? Have you or a member of your family been touched by cancer? Do you want to show your support and celebrate the life-saving work undertaken by Cancer Research UK?

Now in its 13th year, Race For Life is the largest women only fundraising event in the UK. This year, for the first time ever, 4th June 2006 will see the launch of One Big Day, with 25 races taking place simultaneously across the country.

To celebrate the launch of One Big Day, Cancer Research UK is looking for new brides and brides-to-be to start their local race. After all, who could bring to life the importance of One Big Day better than someone who is either planning or recently planned their own?

If you would like to start the Maidstone Race for Life, taking place in Mote Park, and help launch One Big Day write to brides@frankpr.it and tell us why it should be you. Don’t forget to attach a photograph. Each Race For Life event covers a distance of 5k, encouraging women of all ages and levels of fitness to participate. Race For Life 2006 looks set to break all records with in excess of 750,000 women expected to join forces to raise £46 million for Cancer Research UK.
