Wear Green for Macmillan parkrun takeover for World Cancer Day



Macmillan are proud to be a charity partner of parkrun - an organisation which promotes inclusivity, the benefits of physical activity and a community atmosphere as all events are organised by volunteers.


At Macmillan we give people with cancer everything we’ve got. We are excited to be an official charity partner of parkrun UK which offers local communities a free and inclusive 5km event

As part of our partnership, we are hosting Macmillan takeovers at parkrun throughout 2024, to increase awareness of Macmillan services, so everyone living with cancer knows that we are there to support them from the point of diagnosis.


How to take part

To commemorate World Cancer Day 2024, and the 3 million people living with cancer in the UK, attend your local parkrun on Saturday 3rd February 2024 and wear something green.


What is the Macmillan and parkrun partnership?

We are committed to working with parkrun over the next few years to help them grow their community whilst also raising awareness of our services and how we support people living with cancer, from the point of diagnosis.

We are proud to be a partner of parkrun – an organisation which promotes inclusivity, the benefits of physical activity and a community atmosphere as all events are organised by volunteers. 

We want all parkrunners and their loved ones to know they can turn to us for support if they are affected by cancer, now or in the future.


World Cancer Day Sunday 4th February 2024
