Hi there! On Thursday 29th July 2021, we are challenging ourselves to walk a half or full marathon to raise money for the Liverpool Ocular Oncology Research Group in loving memory of Renée Metroka. Liverpool Ocular Oncology Research Group (LOORG) supports life-changing clinical research into the pathogenesis and treatment of adult ocular tumours to improve patient care and survival. Our journey began with LOORG over three years ago when we sadly lost our dear colleague Renée Metroka. In her memory, we wanted to create an event that reflects her personality and to raise funds for LOORG, who supported Renée and her family through a difficult time.We call this The Great Walk. The Great Walk is an annual event, where we come together to do good whilst doing good for others, by walking a full or half marathon and raising money for charity. In two years, we've raised more than £100,000, connected over 500 walkers from across our UK & Ireland sites, and increased awareness of the pioneering research by LOORG. In 2021, we are on a mission to go bigger and better than ever before and make it our biggest year yet. We want to remember Renée and reconnect with our colleagues up and down the country after 2020, a year like no other. Your sponsorship means so much to us. Thank you!
