WALKING AGAINST CANCER

MALLORCA resident Anita Vince is organising Walk Against Cancer, a fun and healthy initiative to raise funds for Cancer Support Mallorca.

Anita had breast cancer in 2014 and as part of the healing process she decided to organise a walk over the Tramuntana mountain range with friends. Every year since the first walk in 2016, Anita and her crew have walked the GR221 to raise money for Cancer Support Mallorca.

The walks always take place over the Easter period in April, and so far they have raised over €15,000 for the charity.

After a few years off due to Covid, the ladies went island hopping last year to walk the GR223, otherwise known as the Cami de Cavalls, in Menorca. They will be returning this year to com ­ plete this walk and as always will be looking for sponsorship as they do this.

In addition, Anita came up with the Walk Against

Cancer initiative, where participants can walk the distance of the GR221 throughout April, in their own time, at their own pace, with family or
