Woof Cancer Day will take place at the Fairlands Valley Park on Saturday, March 10, and there’s still time for all the family – and your furry friends – to get involved.

As well as the 5k walk, there will also be dog show, poochtastic stalls, top dog and fancy dress competition, refreshments and a shorter route for older dogs and puppies.

Stephen Loriot from Baldock is among those who have already signed up. He said: “I’m really looking forward to spending some time with my furry friend, family and friends for this great cause.”

CRUK volunteer Emma Rogers, from Biggleswade, added: “I’m so excited to be helping organise this event and can’t wait to see all the wagging tails on the day.
