May Matters Walk 2025

Our annual May Matters Walk is back for 2025! 

Join us in the heart of Christchurch (rain or shine!) as we walk together to raise awareness and show our support for those in our community affected by brain cancer. All ticket proceeds will go to the White Matter brain cancer Trust, an organisation set up to provide tailored support and financial assistance to individuals diagnosed with primary brain cancer. Learn more about what we do here.
