Step into action this Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month
In 2026, a woman dies every two hours from ovarian cancer in the UK.
We know survival is more likely if it’s caught early, but 71% of women are diagnosed late and only 30% go on to live beyond 10 years.
Together, we can change that. Take on a challenge that means more this Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month and Walk in Her Name.
Join thousands across the UK and walk 100km your way this March to help fund life-saving ovarian cancer research.
Every step will take us closer to a future where ovarian cancer is diagnosed earlier, treated more effectively, and women’s lives are saved.
This March, help raise awareness, bring hope and change the future for women everywhere.
For you, for her, for everyone. It’s time to Walk in Her Name.

Walk in Her Name is close to my heart - Beth Mead
"In 2023, I lost my mum to ovarian cancer. This March, I want to make my Mum proud by pushing for change for other women. She was my inspiration.
With every step you take for this challenge, you’re bringing us closer to a world where no woman dies of ovarian cancer.
For you, for her, for everyone. It's time to Walk in Her Name."
- Beth Mead: Lioness, footballer and Ovarian Cancer Action ambassador
