CSC Cancer Community Run

More than 20,000 people die each day from cancer all over the world. In 2020 around 2, 457 people died from cancer - of any type, in our island. 449 out 2,457 died from lung cancer and the risk of getting cancer in Cyprus by age 75 is 20.6% according to cancerindex.org. WHO predicts by 2040 the deaths in Cyprus from any type of cancer to almost double. 

If we don't act.

Exercise and a proper diet have been proven in numerous studies to reduce the risk of a number of types of cancer.⁣

We want to promote health and wellbeing as a preventative to cancer illness. Inspire those in need and support them in their recovery.
