This special county-wide event brings together the three Powys 5K Your Way groups from Brecon, Builth Wells and Newtown.
What is 5K Your Way?
5K Your Way is a community initiative from the MOVE Against Cancer charity. Groups meet on the last Saturday of each month at certain parkruns, offering a supportive place for people:
- living with or beyond cancer
- supporting a loved one
- or simply wanting to help and get active
You can take part at your own pace – try 1k, 2k or 5k, or come along to cheer, chat or volunteer.
On the Day
We’ll have:
đī¸ Badges
đ° Cakes
âšī¸ Information and support for anyone affected by cancer
Powys 5K Your Way ambassadors - including two Powys Teaching Health Board staff members, Jane Spivey and Sue Ling - will be there to welcome you.
As Jane says:
“The groups are a supportive place for people impacted by cancer to come together, build friendships, improve confidence and benefit from being active"
