Kerry Way Walk makes great strides for cancer research
The Kerry Way Cancer Research Walk is a 70km fundraising event that has gone from strength to strength in the past seven years, contributing over €500,000 to CCRC, which will help researchers to translate lab discoveries into new cancer treatment opportunities for poor prognosis and incurable cancers.
At the recent presentation of funds raised from the event, Dr Declan Soden, CCRC general manager, led a minute’s silence for everyone who has lost loved ones to the disease, which takes the lives of 7,500 people annually in Ireland.
