ActiveApril

Get active in  April and raise money because every 15 minutes someone in the UK is diagnosed with bowel cancer.

To get involved, you just have to do something active every day for the whole of April. Simple, right?

You decide what to do. It could be cycling round the park or doing keepy-uppies in the garden, puffing to the top of your nearest hill – or even to the top of the stairs. You don’t need to be a superhero (but you will be to us!).

That’s because your small steps could help make giant leaps to research the causes of bowel cancer and effective treatments.

So what are you waiting for? Get up, stretch out and join the happy (and slightly sweaty) community of people who are limbering up for a life-changing cause.
