Alongside the walk, Honour Tags will be on sale in Boots stores nationwide for €3. Customers can purchase a tag in honour of someone who has survived or passed away from cancer. The Honour Tags provide space for you to reflect or remember someone affected by cancer. Colleagues from Boots and members of the public come together at the Night Walk to reflect, remember and honour these individuals affected by cancer. The Night Walk is also an opportunity to honour with gratitude the work of the Irish Cancer Society Night Nursing Service and the invaluable care they provide.
and through the support of Boots Ireland team members, patients and
customers within that time have raised €3.3 million helping to provide the
equivalent of approximately 9,100 nights of care for the Night Nursing service.
