The Big Lottery Fund has awarded us a grant of £111,217 to fund the 'Living for Today' programme for the next five years, starting in August 2009. 'Living for Today' is a programme for people with an illness that is progressive and unlikely to be curable, and for carers who are looking after someone with this type of illness. |

On a very sunny, warm but windy Friday 18th June 2010 1450 ladies (and one very brave man, subtly disguised in a tutu) descended on Tesco Car Park in Workington for Workington’s 1st ever Midnight Walk. As it was the second time we had organised a Midnight Walk a few lessons had been learned and we had the confidence to say the day/night was going to be better than ever. And we weren't disappointed! It really was a fantastic night - thanks to everybody who was involved!
