Shine On with DKMS

Sunday 21st June is the summer solstice — the longest day of the year, with more sunlight than any other. This year, we’re asking you to use those extra hours to do something extraordinary.

Shine On is our one-day fundraising challenge and we're inviting you to take on one of these activities, or you choose your own, to mark the day and make a difference.

It’s your chance to get outside, get moving, and help more people with blood cancer to Shine On.

Shine On events:

  • Finsbury Park Half Marathon, 10K and 5K
  • Whitby Bridge Bungee Jump
  • Run Redditch 10K
  • Wimbledon Common Half Marathon and 10K
  • West Yorkshire Trail 12km and 21km Runs
  • West Yorkshire 8km, 12km and 21km Hiking Trails
  • East Yorkshire Half Marathon and 10K

Everyone who signs up will receive a DKMS t-shirt to wear proudly on the day, plus a certificate to celebrate your achievement. Whether you tackle one of these challenges or choose on of your own, you’ll be helping to make the longest day of the year one that truly shines.
