This means that for the first time, it will be supported not only across the Eastern Cape, but also nationally and even globally, with even more people participating in a 5km or 6 500 steps walk. Any location goes, if walks are not mass events, and it should be held between 08:00 and 10:00 and adhere to all COVID-19 regulations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Various satellite walks will be held, including at Despatch and Uitenhage, in solidarity with the Big Walk. In Uitenhage, Lumotech, has given the green light for one of its employees, Maureen Pullen, who organised a local event supporting the Big Walk for Cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA large group of us annually goes to Port Elizabeth to participate in the Big Walk for Cancer. We still wish to support the event and therefore have decided to organise something local for all who want to celebrate the lives of cancer survivors and their loved ones,\u201d said Maureen Pullen, an employee from Lumotech in Uitenhage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhilst participating in the walk, social distancing is of utmost importance as are the rest of the COVID-19 protocols. We are very grateful towards Lumotech who agreed to pay for fifty entrants to this year\u2019s virtual event. Our participation also forms part of the company\u2019s wellness programme,\u201d said Maureen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Big Walk for Cancer\u2019s support event in Uitenhage will start and finish at the Uitenhage Cricket Club (opposite the Uitenhage Indoor Sports Centre). All participants need to be there at 07:30 for the start at 08:00. A 5km route will be followed through the neighbourhood. A lucky draw as well as a Jerusalema dance will be held at the finish point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is not only for Lumotech employees. All who have entered for this year\u2019s Virtual Algoa FM Big Walk for Cancer are welcome to join us, as long as all COVID-19 protocols are adhered to,\u201d said Maureen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maureen wishes to thank Lumotech for agreeing to support the walk, as well as sponsors Shiaam Fredericksson, JC\u2019s Juice, Derrick Inggs, Werner Deysel and Dajee\u2019s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul
