Another year on, and the time has come to celebrate the Cudeca Walkathon 2010. It will be held on the 23rd May, as always, on the beach by the Sunset Beach Club promenade, offering participants three alternative routes to choose from: a 10km walk for the fittest at 10:30hrs, a 5km walk for those who like to stroll at 11:30hrs and an especially adapted 2km route for children and/or wheelchair participants at 11.30hrs. The registration tables will open to participants at 09.30 and the entrance fee is 10€ for pre-paid entrance and 12€ on the day and 6€ for children.
 
The objective is for participants to raise funds via individual sponsorship, by encouraging friends to give an amount for every kilometre walked. This year’s funds will be especially destined to save the In-Patient Unit from its financial difficulties and prevent the possibility of its closure by November 2010.
 
The registration leaflets are now available from the reception at the Hospice Centre, at all our charity shops and on our website at www.cudeca.org. Motivate your family and friends now to sponsor every kilometre you walk.
 
Those participants, who get the most individual sponsors, will win excellent prizes. There will also be a special prize for the group with the most participants!
 
We will have music, a large paella, BBQ, and gifts. Our professional friends at Exploramás will be in charge of exciting activities and there will be an interactive performance by Ronald McDonald for the children, amongst many other surprises.
 
We would like to thank the following companies for sponsoring us this year:
XANIT INTERNATIONAL HOSPITAL as the official Sponsor, Benalmádena Town Hall, Patronato Deportivo Municipal del Ayto. de Benalmádena, Fundación Cajasol, Málaga.es Diputación, Exploramas, Costa del Sol Occidental, Sunset Beach Club, Knight Insurance Brokers, Málaga Hoy, Talk Radio Europe, Dumher, Cadena Ser, McDonalds Benalmádena, Carrefour Alameda, Grupo GMG, and Coca-Cola.
 
All the funds raised will go to continue adding “life to days” of people living in Málaga who are suffering from advanced non-curable cancer, and offer assistance to their families. As always, the care offered is completely free of charge since 1992.
