The 11th annual Byron Bay Lighthouse Run is set for Sunday October 22 and will be supporting charities including Crackin’ Cancer and the Mai Wiru Foundation.
The Byron Bay Lighthouse Run is open to groups and individuals and includes a 10km run or a 6km walk starting at 7am at Clarkes Beach in Byron Bay.
Crackin’ Cancer works to support research and the Cancer Council of NSW, while the Mai Wiru Foundation looks to reduce the sugar intake and improve nutrition in remote Aboriginal communities.
Last year’s run again drew hundreds of community-minded locals to raise money for new equipment to fight breast cancer in the northern rivers.
The new piece of technology, a prone breast board, had been a priority for Lismore Base Hospital.
