The Burnes’ are taking part in Swansea’s Walk of Light event to raise awareness and funds for vital research into blood cancer, the fifth most common cancer in the UK.

We will be doing the 5km walk on March 29th along the picturesque Swansea Bay promenade, the Walk of Light in aid of Blood Cancer UK.

We are participating in support of Swansea City Council’s Chief Executive, Martin Nicholls, who had chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) – a blood cancer himself, is organising the event. Diagnosed in July 2020, Martin navigated his journey through the challenges of the pandemic, undergoing treatment while working full-time. Now in remission, he is dedicated to giving back.

Around 40,000 people are diagnosed with blood cancer each year. As the sun sets, we will walk together and shine a light on blood cancer.
