CANCER CARE JAVEA – Virtual Moonlight Walk

Please take part in our next virtual event –  Cancer Care Javea Moonlight Walk Week 2020

Last year, we had the most amazing turn out for our moonlight walk in aid of raising funds for our Lynwens Cancer Care nursing and advisory team.  170 people did the walk from the Parador to the Port and we raised over 1500 euros.  A fantastic achievement.  Sadly, covid has changed what we can all do, but it’s not changed what we are still doing as a charity – very busy and totally committed to helping people with cancer every day, no matter what restrictions are in place. Nor has it changed the commitment and enthusiasm of people who are still striving hard to support various charities in such difficult times.  So we ask you to please join Cancer Care once again in in a fundraising VIRTUAL event where anyone can join in with us wherever they are.

How do you do it?
We can’t form groups, but we can ask you to do a walk wherever you are on the next full moon which is on Monday 30th November.  Or, in view of the fact there are so many changing restrictions and depending on where you live, you can still commit to a walk within a moonlight week which for this event can be any time from Monday 23rd November to Monday 30th November.
Look up to the moon as you do your walk and think of walking in solidarity with all the others who rise to this challenge.  Think of your loved ones and encourage your family and friends wherever you are to take part and know you’re supporting a great cause, as well as exercising to keep healthy.  For all the healthy walkers, we suggest you aim for around 5 miles on the night, or if you’re doing it through the week, why not aim for 10 miles – around 20,000 steps.  For anyone who simply wants to take part, just choose your own goals on the distance you walk, even if it’s only around your garden or on the street you live.  It’s the joining in that counts.
To participate and register, please sign in and donate 5 euros on

We’d also welcome you all getting sponsors too in the hope you can boost your donations, but the main thing is just join in if you can as every bit of support we can get for the charity is very helpful and very much appreciated.
We’d love you to send pictures to us afterwards and a few words about your experience on the walk and we’ll post it on our Facebook page and website.  Please send these to our email address –
We hope you join in and have fun!!  Thank you for your support.
