Think Pink Luxembourg persists in the fight against cancer with their 6th Annual 'Race for the Cure' this Sunday, 13 October, 2024, from 9 am to 12.30 pm at Auberge de Jeunesse Echternach.

Sounding the horn for a good cause, Sam Steen and Meredith Moss were joined in the Today Radio studio by Carrie Cannon, president and founding member of cancer charity Think Pink Luxembourg, as well as committee member Freda Deed.

Carrie and Freda were excited to announce this year's edition of 'Race for the Cure', which will kick off on Sunday morning at Echternach Lake's Youth Hostel (Auberge de Jeunesse).

They were also proud to promote the new edition of their Think Pink Guide, a Luxembourg-specific resource intended to answer many of the practical questions that arise following a cancer diagnosis. Another new development from Think Pink is a men’s support group, the details of which can be accessed through their website.
