Why should I sign up?

Take on a fun, achievable challenge and get moving every day this October. Whether you’re a skipping pro or haven’t picked up a rope since the playground, 112 Skips a Day is something you can fit around everyday life. Do your skips at home, in the garden, at the gym or wherever suits you. You’ll be joining a community of other people taking on the same challenge, giving you plenty of motivation to keep going throughout October. There’s also a really natural connection between the challenge and WCRF’s work: being physically active is one of the important ways we can reduce our risk of cancer.

Why choose World Cancer Research Fund and cancer prevention?

Around 40% of cancer cases in the UK could be prevented – that’s around 158,000 cases every year. World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) researches how diet, body weight and physical activity affect people’s risk of developing and surviving cancer, and turns that evidence into information that can help people live healthier lives.

Where will my fundraising go?

Every pound raised helps WCRF continue its work to prevent cancer and save lives. Fundraising helps WCRF fund research into cancer prevention and survival, translate scientific evidence into practical health information, support people living with and beyond cancer, and campaign for environments and policies that make healthier choices easier. WCRF’s international network has invested around £160 million in research to date.
